Welcome to Upsilon Omega Chapter
Welcome to the official website of the Upsilon Omega Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated ®.
Greetings,
Upsilon Omega Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated®, was the
first sorority chartered by college-trained African-American women in Richmond,
Virginia in 1925. Since that time, the chapter has continuously implemented
programs of service for women, men, youth, and children throughout the
Richmond metropolitan area. Initiatives addressing the family, positive youth
development, the arts, support for education, health and wellness, economic
security, and civic involvement comprise the rich legacy of the chapter.
Welcome to our website which proudly shares our illustrious history and provides
other pertinent information. Our programs and activities are designed to carry
out the mission and goals of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated®, through
implementation of the international program focus. In July of 2018, upon the
installation of International President, Dr. Glenda Glover, Alpha Kappa Alpha

Excellence Through Sustainable Service. Five program targets are designed to
address this international program. They are: Target 1: HBCU for Life: A Call to
Action; Target 2: Women’s Healthcare and Wellness; Target 3: Building Your
Economic Legacy; Target 4: The Arts!; Target 5: Global Impact; and Our Signature
