Chapter Programs & Special Projects

Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Incorporated's national programs are community outreach mentoring initiatives that have been adopted by the organization’s governing body and mandated for implementation by all of its chapters. These include: Go-To-High School, Go-To-College, Project Alpha, A Voteless People Is A Hopeless People, and Brother's Keeper. Over the years, ODL has served the community via these programs and other local initiatives.

Voteless People are a Hopeless People

 

ODL’s supports works with local schools, community centers, and legistlators, to educate our neighborhoods on the power of voting.  With voter registration, voter education and voter empowerment, ODL has programs all year round around this core mission.

Arms of Alpha

 

Every year ODL is blessed to have the opportunity to serve our disadvantaged brothers and sisters in Philadelphia. On thanksgiving day, more than 270 individuals were served – all with the help of over 100 volunteers! All the guests who attended were able to eat as much as they wanted and take as many articles of clothing as they desired. In fact, we saw whole families leave with both their arms and stomachs full.
