About the AKA
|
HistoryThe Educational Advancement Foundation (EAF) was founded in 1980 by Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., an organization with a rich and distinguished history of service which spans over a century. Alpha Kappa Alpha was the first Greek-letter organization of its kind. The organization pioneered mobile health clinics in America, has been a leader in the fight against illiteracy and has the distinction of being one of only a handful of women's organizations to operate a federally funded Job Corps. The perpetuity of the Scholarship Program has endured since Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. bestowed its' first scholarship in 1914; an award of $10.00 to a liberal arts student at Howard University. Creating the Educational Advancement Foundation was the method by which Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated® sought to ensure that there would always be support for education; its first program of service. Today, as a financially strong and viable organization, the Foundation is a powerful tool for positivism, pooling the resources of others who share this vision of providing a perpetual source of support for education. |
