"Society offered us narrowly circumscribed opportunity and no security. Out of our need, our Fraternity brought social purpose and social action."
-Jewel Henry Arthur Callis 1969  

social purpose

our chapter?s mission is to uplift humanity, aid the downtrodden, and provide a beacon of leadership for the black community.  this is consistent with the aims of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc.: Manly Deeds, Scholarship, and Love For All Mankind. 

social action

it is our duty not only as black men but as human beings to further the progress of humanity.  for far too long African descendents have faced social injustice in this greatest of nations;  as Alpha men we will work to achieve progress through struggle, and we will see to it that first of all, as servants of all, we shall transcend all boundaries so that we may all live in a better world.
