Our new theme for the next four years is “Exemplifying Excellence Through EAF®.” “ lpha Under this theme we will renew our commitment to promoting lifelong learning by supporting students pursuing their higher educational goals and KappaA Alpha’s 111- providing grants to community organizations whose projects address one of the programmatic thrusts of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated. year history is deeply interwoven into the I announced in August 2018 that EAF® would partner with Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority to execute and implement an AKA HBCU Endowment Initiative.
