GOLDEN ISLES CHAPTER OF MOAA 

The Golden Isles Chapter of MOAA was in existence for about 40 years. Our membership lived in the Golden Isles area of Brunswick, St Simons Island, Jekyll Island, Sea Island and surroundings counties.

 The Chapter’s community project provided three annual college scholarships of $2,000.00 each to students of Glynn County High Schools.  All students in good standing were eligible to apply for these scholarships through their school Guidance Counselors.
