President’s Welcome

A Welcome From Our President

Welcome to the website for The Fort Worth (TX) Chapter, The Links, Incorporated. We are a part of a national organization with over 16,000 civic-minded women. Founded in 1946, The Links, Incorporated is one of the oldest and largest volunteer service organizations of women who are committed to enriching, sustaining and ensuring the culture and economic survival of African Americans and other persons of African ancestry.

The Fort Worth (TX) Chapter, The Links, Incorporated, comprised of talented, influential, service-minded women, has been a part of the greater Fort Worth community for more than half a century. Our chapter was founded in 1959 by ten friends who were passionate about strengthening the community in which they lived. We continue the traditions established by our charter members and build on the legacy they have left as we focus on enriching the lives of youth, women and men in our community. We are indebted to those who came before us and laid the groundwork for us to lead with excellence and serve with grace.

We are excited to be a part of the vibrant Fort Worth community. Please enjoy our website to learn more about us.
