Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority, incorporated was the first sisterhood for African American women. Founded on January 15, 1908 at Howard state university in Washington, D.C.., it is the oldest college based sorority founded by African American. the inspiration for its inception was Ethel Hedgemen Lyle, who along with fifteen other dynamic women, saw a need for togetherness and "service to all mankind" for not only the campus of Howard, but also for the entire world. The perpetuity of this greatness was secured on January 29, 1913 by a movement for incorporation led by one of the sorority’s illustrious founders, Nellie Quander. The sorority is committed to serve in every community wherever it is located with 725 plus undergraduate and graduate chapters, alpha Kappa Alpha definitely gets the job done. Our organization pursues it objectives through people-oriented programs targeting education, Black Family, Economic Empowerment, Health, and the Arts. history will show that Alpha Kappa Alpha has made a difference nationally by waging a war on diphtheria and smallpox and improving nutritional and dental practices by launching the Mississippi health project, the first mobile health clinic in the united states.
Now with membership of more that 150, 000 women, Alpha Kappa Alpha have distinguished themselves as trailblazers in every spectrum of society.
