NEWNAN-FAIRBURN (GA) ALUMNI CHAPTER The Story of Kappa Alpha Psi Book Donation Initiative with the Newnan Fairburn (GA) Alumni Chapter
The Newnan-Fairburn (GA) Alumni Chapter accepted the charge to donate “The Story of Kappa Alpha Psi, 6th Edition” to two respective libraries within their service area. This request was initially proposed at a Book Signing event during Kappa Alpha Psi’s National Founder’s Day in New Orleans back in January 2024. The fraternity’s Grand Historian, Bro. Kevin Scott along with Bro. Aaron S. Williams, who were given the esteemed honor and responsibility to develop and release the 6th Edition of The Story of Kappa Alpha Psi, challenged all undergraduate and alumni chapters to purchase one of the books to strengthen knowledge of our fraternity’s rich history as well as demonstrate the achievements of various members of our great clan. The brothers of the chapter took on the challenge and decided to help with the cause. The book donation not only allows the public to learn more about the fraternity, it also allows the public to celebrate the accomplishments of our members throughout the fraternity’s 114-year history. Brother Kevin Scott personally thanked the brothers of NFAC saying, “The Newnan-
Fairburn (GA) Alumni Chapter has taken a significant step towards making our history available for others to learn about and foster knowledge about who we are and our relevancy by donating The Story of Kappa Alpha Psi, 6th Ed. to their local library, the Hobgood-Palmer Library in Fairburn, GA.” The brothers of the chapter also donated a copy to the Carnegie Library in Newnan, GA. Both institutions expressed their gratitude to the chapter for the donation and we encourage other chapters to accept the challenge to donate a copy of the Story of Kappa Alpha Psi, 6th Edition to the libraries in their service areas as well.
During Senior Kappa Week, as part of our National Service Projects, on May 11, 2024, the chapter collaborated with Habitat for Humanity of Coweta County (GA), to construct a house for a low-income first-time home buyer. Throughout the day, the brothers dedicated themselves to tasks such as installing insulation, placing ceramic tiles on walls, and set up kitchen appliances. Senior Kappa Brothers Ceasar Allen, Vincent Morrell, Kevin Taylor, and Daryl Mosby were actively involved in this meaningful project.
