At my university we have a service organization known as the "Jewels of Tau." In their history it is stated that they were created by the brothers of Alpha Phi Omega National Service Fraternity Incorporated at a local institution in the early 1970's to help promote service within their communities.
Then in 1989, the Jewels severed all ties to Alpha Phi Omega and became a privately owned, non-greek, non-profit, service organization.
I have a couple of questions so please bear with me

You didn't identify your school, so I wonder if its the University of Florida. The APO chapter there is Tau chapter.
Let me answer your questions more for the sake of others who might read this.
"Does APO still associate with Jewels of Tau?"
A. Have no idea.
"What exactly is APO about? Do you have a national webpage?"
A. Our website is
www.apo.org. What are we? A National Service Fraternity open to ALL college students regardless of gender, ethinic/racial background, program, etc. We are a community service organization. We the website for full info.
"Is APO a mixed/diverse group of individuals?"
A. YES. We are very diverse. The only requirement to join is to be a student at the schools we have chapters for. Doesn't matter your gender, race, ethnic group, religious beliefs, nationality, academic level (ie undergrad or grad), age, etc.
"If one should join APO would that harm his/her chances of joining an NPCH organization? "
A. NO. Because we are not part of any of the Social GLO organizations, you can be a member of a Social and a member of APO. Many of our Brothers are members of social GLO.
Hope this helps
