Kim Blessinger
Alpha Sigma Alpha
 ​2025 Woman of the Year

PictureKim Blessinger, Alpha Sigma Alpha
        

Kim is the embodiment of leadership, service, and sisterhood. Over her 25 years as a member of Alpha Sigma Alpha Sorority, she has contributed to the Panhellenic community in countless ways. As President of SPAPA, Kim has led initiatives that bridge collegiate and alumnae communities, ensuring the Panhellenic spirit thrives across generations. Her leadership efforts have helped SPAPA earn national recognition, including the Enhancement of the Alumnae Experience Award from NPC in 2024.
Kim’s passion extends far beyond her sorority. Through her work as Director of Marketing Operations for the Women’s Chamber of Commerce, she has elevated nonprofit organizations, organized impactful fundraisers, and brought attention to deserving causes. Her dedication to the Lealman community as Secretary of the Lealman Community Association and a member of the Lealman CRA Advisory Board has made a real difference, from advocating for park improvements to supporting families in need.
Kim is not only a leader; she is also a connector. She has cultivated multigenerational friendships and created opportunities for others to grow and thrive. Her favorite part of this work is seeing how small actions—like organizing events or sharing resources—can create ripples of change that impact countless lives.
Kim, you are an inspiration to us all, and we are so grateful for everything you do to strengthen our Panhellenic community and beyond. Please join me in congratulating the 2025 Woman of the Year: Kim Blessinger!"​
