January 29, 1913: A Day of Thanksgiving for Members of AKA Sorority, INC

Sorors,

More than Ninety-three years ago, Soror Nellie Quander was on the case! As you know, in the fall of 1912, Soror Nellie learned of changes to take place with her beloved Alpha Kappa Alpha. At this time, she gathered, Soror Norma E. Boyd, Soror Julia E. Brooks, Soror Ethel Jones Mowbray, Soror Nellie K. Pratt and Soror Minne B. Smith to plan for legal incorporation.

After weeks of planning and preparation, on January 29, 1913, Alpha Kappa Alpha was incorporated as a perpetual body. Alpha Kappa Alpha was the first sorority organized for African American Women in the United States, but was also the first to become incorporated!

To our INCORPORATORS, we thank you AND we celebrate you! For if Soror Nellie had not have been on the case, sorors, where would we as members of ALPHA KAPPA ALPHA be today?
