Most Improved Chapter Award
Entering the school year, the Alpha Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. sought to close the community engagement gap between the Hill and Greater Ithaca. The members of Alpha made it their goal to serve as role models for young children from minority backgrounds living in the more urban areas. The Chapter in collaboration with Southside Community Center, Big Brothers Big Sisters, and Black Students United organized a holiday festival to create a space for young boys and girls of color in Ithaca to be able to interact and celebrate the spirit of the holidays with students at Cornell. Meaningful connections were made simply by delighting together in arts and crafts. Acknowledging the far-reaching implications
