Happy Founders’ Day
Today we honour the legacy of the Original Nine Founders of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated ® (AKA). These trailblazing Howard University students created a sisterhood dedicated to “Service to All Mankind.” On this Founders’ Day, we celebrate the sorority’s growth to more than 360,000 initiated members in graduate and undergraduate chapters located in 12 nations and territories including the United States, Bahamas, Bermuda, Canada, United Arab Emirates, Germany, Japan, Liberia, Nigeria, South Korea, South Africa and the U.S. Virgin Islands. AKA is the oldest Greek-letter organization established by African American college-educated women. I am so proud to be a member of this illustrious organisation. I look forward to celebrating with my sorority sisters in London, UK.
