Every member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. is considered a Precious Pearl. Reclaiming and retaining our Pearls is the heart of our sorority. If you are an Unattached Pearl and would like to reactivate by joining a chapter, we would love to have you join us.
Would You Like to Reactivate?
We are a legacy of service and sisterhood, so the members of Alpha Alpha Upsilon Omega Chapter welcome existing Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated members to reactive with the sorority. As well, we welcome you back with open arms. If you have been inactive for over a year, we know you are longing to actively participate with a chapter again.
