ALPHA SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM

Alpha Phi Alpha prides itself on being a “school for the better making of men”. No population is in more need of enlightenment than African American males. The Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity and the Alpha Beta Lambda Education Foundation works collectively to raise money that supports the educational endeavors of those young men aspiring to pursue higher education. Having supported students since 1998, we strive to seek out those who have demonstrated their potential, letting them know that it is our goal to support them financially and personally. The scholarship is in the amount of one thousand dollars ($1,000) per semester with the possibility of renewal for up to four years (total of $8,000).
