Happy Founders Day SORORS!!!
 
Happy Founders Day SORORS!!!



Alpha Kappa Alpha women all over the world
proudly wearing their precious 20 pearls.
AKA, they founded January 15, 1908
at Howard University on that historic date.
Women called together by Ethel Hedgeman Lyle
chose pink and green their colors, a lot of class, a lot of style.
Women providing service to an outstanding ideal
through friendship, sisterhood and love so real.
Women blessed by God above, in friendship and love
in a sorority as precious and peaceful as the white dove.
Women, by culture and by merit too, who strive to do their best
through high standards, moral character, a lot of zeal
Women with strength and endurance like the Green Ivy Leaf
promote the goals of service and sisterhood in our great sorority.
Women like the rose unfolding in shadows of pink and green
demonstrate fine characteristics of womanhood serene.
Women in the Virgin Islands, The Bahamas, Germany,
Korea, Bermuda, England, and the USA
are working together in service and sisterhood the
Alpha Kappa Alpha Way.
Alpha Kappa Alpha Women all over the world
proudly wearing their precious 20 pearls.

SKEEEEEEE-WEEEEEEE MY SORORS!!!!

Dear Founders,

98 Years Ago, an opportunity presented itself, you took charge, and you changed the world! College Educated Women of Color owe a great deal to you. You as matriarchs, and we as your daughters, over the span of 98 years have seen many pay homage to you and your efforts. What a great compliment! In 98 years, as the world has become smaller and contiously needy, your SPIRIT to serve all mankind continues with women of color all over the globe!


To God Be the Glory... for our Founders!
To God Be the Glory... for Alpha Kappa Alpha!
To God Be the Glory... for 98 Years of Supreme Service to All Mankind!

Founders, like Alpha Kappa Alpha, we greet thee today!

Thank you and To God Be the Glory!


Sisterly,
Me :D

98 Years!!!!!!!!
 
MY SISTER

Someone asked me today
Who was my Sister
Who was the the woman
That showed me true love
Who protected me along my ways....

I paused because I never thought
Such a question could be so simple
I answered that she was a student
a student on every campus NYU, Howard to Stanford
She was about her community and a teacher

She was a woman of easter Egg Hunts
Visiting kids at Holloween
She visited the sick
She paid for the poor

She was a sister
A best kind of friend
She was stubborn
Yet compassionate to the end

She was a beauty to behold
A woman not to be compared
A woman that others aspire
Just to hold her was a pleasure

She graduates and she masters her destiny
She acquires 2 or 3 more masters and PHDs
She becomes a leader in her field or community
And holds a 4.0

She is a friend to the end
A Sister Like No Other!!!!!
She is and lady of Alpha Kappa Alpha founded in 08

Happy Founders' Day Sorors!!!!!

We'll Always Reverence AKA Forever and a Day!
 
My beautiful Sorors, I wish you a beautiful and wonderful 98th Founders Day!

Life would change forever in 1908,
When a woman dared to dream so wild
And everday since then
We take to heart her goal
The stride, the strength of Ethel Hedgman Lyle
Oh Margaret, Marie, Lavinia, Lillie, Beulah, Anna, Lucy, Marjorie
Your contribution was so pristine and so supreme
That's why you mean so much to me


The sophomores were believers and joined a movement right
To carry out a vision fair
And even now today,
With Sorors coast-to-coast
That very same vision to share
Oh Norma, Harriet, Sarah, Carrie, Alice, Joanna and Ethel Jones Mowbray
You paved the way as pioneers, transcended through the years
That's you mean so much to me


How high can ivy grow With roots so deep below
A sisterhood so divine
It's a rare pearl so hard to find
You live on vicariously, avoiding extinction
By merit and by culture too you've made a clear distinction


Oh Nellie Quander, Julia Brooks, Minnie Smith and Nellie Pratt-Russell
Your contribution was so supreme, that's why you'll never know
How much you mean to me

As the new year brings new hopes and new dreams, Alpha Kappa Alpha women rekindle their own individual and group aspirations from the symbolic light first kindled by that "splendid sixteen"

How beautiful, how beautiful were these builders; how pleasant to recall from the dim recesses of memory these lovely women.

Stepping out of the shadows of slavery, they brought to Howard University the Freedmen's mystic faith in, and yearning for, education.

They built far better than they knew.

Happy Founders Day, sorors! Make it great! :)

Paradise359 01-15-2006 07:42 PM

Sorors,

My sweet, sweet sorors, can you believe it? 98 years of Sisterhood and Friendship & Love! 98 years of reigning SUPREME in Service to ALL Mankind. Our Sorority has seen and been through challenges since the very beginning. Our Strong sisterhood survived and continues to thrive. Oh so many would LOVE to know what we’re talking about when we say we LOVE our AKA but only the chosen few will know.

I am so proud of OUR Founders for having the courage to go through with creating a sorority for and by black women and for having the perseverance to see her through her "growing pains" into what she is today. They believed in the 'vision fair' and stayed true to their vows until their last breaths.


Let us remember them on this day Sorors & thank them for this gift that is Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Inc. !


P.S.

Norma , Julia , Ethel (Jones Mowbray), Nellie Q., Nellie P. , and Minnie we'll see you ladies on the 29th ;)

And God Said.

God Said,"I'll make a woman"
A women of substance,
A woman of pride,
A woman who is able to put
Petty things aside.
A woman of integrity,
A woman of love,
A woman who is worthy of
The treasures from above,
A woman who is genuine,
A leader in every way.
God said, "I'll make a woman
I'll call her AKA
