Midlothian – National Charity League, Inc.  the nation’s premier mother-daughter non-profit organization, announced the formation of the Southern Star Chapter.

With the addition of the Southern Star Chapter, NCL now has 288 chapters across the country.

The Southern Star Chapter is open to mothers and daughters who reside in Ellis County.

This chapter, combined with the 13 existing chapters in Fort Worth, brings the total number of NCL members in this area to nearly 4,000.

In addition to participating in national philanthropic initiatives, the chapter’s inaugural members will have the opportunity to choose which local organizations they will support through hands-on volunteer service hours.

Daughters in 7th through 12th grade, known as Ticktockers, and their mothers, known as Patronesses, will together embark on a core program focused on philanthropy, strengthening mother-daughter relationships, cultural experiences and leadership opportunities.

Chapter President Leslie Chandler said, “About 9 months ago, I reached out to NCL because I knew the women in this community could make an impact.

“I’m excited to see this come together and to know everyone and to start to make a difference in our community.”
