Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated®
Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated® was founded in 1908 as the first sorority established by college-educated African American women. Under the leadership of our 31st International President and CEO, Danette Anthony Reed, our 2022-2026 International Program Initiatives are aptly themed, “Soaring to Greater Heights of Service and Sisterhood.”
Sigma Omega Omega History
To do things that are worthwhile, to capture a vision fair, and a chapter in service to all mankind–all are reasons for the chartering of the Sigma Omega Omega Chapter. Alpha Kappa Alpha women have always dared to venture forth, to explore their talents, and bring greater laurels to Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority itself. Three women, Nellie Hudson, Sharon Dewberry, and Marracia Mitchell, founded the Emerald Ladies interest group. The task of establishing a new graduate chapter was not and is not easy, but these three members set a goal of establishing a new chapter and remained steadfast to it.
