22 July 2022
Dear Kevin Burnett, It is my pleasure to announce that the Kappa Alpha Psi – Guide Right Foundation is the Ron E. McNair award recipient for the National Black Coalition of Federal Aviation Employees. For over 45 years, NBCFAE, a nationwide network, has been dedicated to promoting equal employment for African Americans, Female and minority employees; improving employee- management relations and providing an effective liaison amongst Federal Aviation Administration employees and the community at large. In addition, NBCFAE positively expands and promotes influence in our community by providing scholarships, presenting Aviation Careers Education (ACE) academies, supporting intern programs, and establishing educational grants and endowments. We have distributed over $1 million in scholarships to deserving students nation-wide. Due to our endeavors, over 50,000 young people have been exposed to a variety of aviation careers. You, and other worthy award recipients, will be presented your award at the 2022 National Training Conference during the C. Alfred Anderson Awards Gala on August 24 th . I simply would like to say congratulations! We’re lucky to have you as part of our NBCFAE family. We appreciate your continued commitment and service to the organization.
Cleveland Ferguson III, Esq., Editor I n yet another example of the re- silience and leadership of the 34 th Administration, we come to the milestone of the 100 th Anniversary of Guide Right: the seminal leadership and mentorship program of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. Grand Polemarch Reuben A. Shelton III, Esq. immersed himself with the young men whose stewardship under National Guide Right Committee Chair- man Kevin Burnett and his committee members is truly a labor of love, and an investment in the future of our schools, communities, and indeed our nation. See examples of their work beginning on page 13. The aims and purposes are well set out in the Grand Polemarch Message. See page 10. It is wonderful to receive the recogni- tion from the National Black Coalition of Federal Aviation Employees on the Fraternity's program. The Centennial Conference featured our latest member to be promoted to 4-star general, Brother General Charles R. Hamilton (see page 24). See also Brother Kevin Vereen who was pro- moted to Lt. General on page 28). Each discusses Kappa as a positive influence on their leadership. They are guiding countless service men and women to achieve their respective missions. Achievement!
Sincerely,
Freddie Green National President
