PROGRAM INITIATIVES
Since 1908, Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated has implemented programs
of service impacting countless lives. The theme of the 2022-2026 International Program is SOARING TO GREATER HEIGHTS OF SERVICE AND SISTERHOOD
Initiative 1:
Strengthen Our SISTERHOOD
For more than a century, our Sisterhood has served as the foundation for Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority to be an indomitable force for good—in our communities, states, nation, and the world. We will intentionally take time to fellowship and form lifelong relationships based on Affinity, Love, Trust, Respect, and Shared Goals and Interests, while concurrently building on our foundation to serve others.
Empower Our FAMILIES
Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority has a strong history of supporting and servicing families, for we understand a healthy family is the foundation of a healthy community. We will take a multi-generational approach to fortify families within our communities by addressing child hunger and promoting positive youth development and leadership, mental well-being, and senior life.

Build Our ECONOMIC WEALTH
Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority is launching our most progressive and revolutionary economic initiatives this century. This administration has created institutional-level solutions to combat institutional-level challenges. We will further encourage and equip our members to place key strategies into action to build personal, organizational, and community economic wealth. In another game-changing first, AKA will launch For Members Only Federal Credit Union™ which will be the FIRST, black-owned, women-led, sorority-based, digital banking financial institution in the United States!
Enhance our ENVIRONMENT
Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority has the power to galvanize our organization of more than 120,000 active members, create a ripple effect, and make a significant impact on our environment. We will employ select strategies to optimize our collective ability and to improve and protect the environment at scale. We will prioritize activities that promote the adoption of more sustainable and responsible practices that include tree planting, community and home gardens, waste reduction and shredding and electronic recycling days.
