Bill > HR198

This resolution designates May 6, 2025, as "AKA Day at the Capitol" in Pennsylvania to honor Alpha Kappa Alpha (AKA) Sorority, Inc., the oldest Greek-letter organization established by African-American, college-educated women. Founded in 1908 at Howard University, the sorority has grown to include 360,000 members across 12 countries, with a focus on community service, social justice, and empowerment. The resolution highlights AKA's international presence, its commitment to service through initiatives like strengthening sisterhood, empowering families, building economic wealth, and advocating for social justice. The sorority's members in Pennsylvania are part of the North Atlantic and Great Lakes Regions, and the "AKA Day at the Capitol" is intended to provide an opportunity for sorority members to advocate for important initiatives and strengthen relationships with elected officials, particularly those affecting black women and girls.
