I have no problem saying we (the Alphas, and I think the other D9s as well) focus on the needs of the AA community, the community from which most of our brotherhood comes. As Enlightenment06 alluded to earlier, A Phi A was born because our founders were denied entrance into the existing fraternities of the day.

To me that's always been a guiding focus of Alpha's work. The problems in the AA community (pick a state, it's the same all over) are too acute for us not get involved and make positive change happen. If we don't do it, who will? Sure, we're citizens of the world, and as such will help anybody in need, but our primary goal, in my opinion is leading the spiritual, moral, economic and social revitalization of our community. To me, that's as laudable a goal as anyone can suggest.

Don't know if this answers your question, but hopefully it offers additional perspective.
