Greetings:

I am pleased to present the 2018-2022 International Program under the theme Exemplifying Excellence Through Sustainable Service. In fact, it is more than a theme, it is our call to Action. It is our call to Service. The time is now, the needs are great, and the opportunities are plentiful.

During the 110-year history of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority,
Incorporated®, we have partnered with our local communities,
regional, and national organizations to solve problems as well as provide programs of service at home and abroad. We enthusiastically present our Signature Program, #CAPSM — which is the abbreviation for College Admissions Process and focuses on motivating and assisting young people through the college entry process, along with five program targets and seven Community Impact Days. HBCU support, health and wellness, the arts, and economic well-being are among the critical issues impacting the quality of life for African Americans that we will address during the next four years.

With excellence as our guide and sustainable service as our focus, the 2018-2022 international program agenda provides opportunities for our 300,000 members, operating in more than 1,000 chapters, to meet the needs of the communities we serve. The sorority’s past initiatives have changed the social and economic landscape of our nation, and we will continue to make a difference worldwide for decades to come.

We will work with heightened enthusiasm and incredible passion, joining hands as we implement initiatives under our theme Exemplifying Excellence Through Sustainable Service, to inspire our communities and renew our efforts to be of service to all mankind.

Sincerely,

Dr. Glenda Glover, International President

Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated®
