Our chapter proudly upholds the legacy and values of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, which has been a beacon of excellence and service for over a century.

This enduring commitment to excellence is deeply embedded in the history of the Hampton-Newport News Alumni Chapter, established on August 4, 1945. Originally chartered as the Hampton Alumni Chapter, our journey began with 17 dedicated founding members, each contributing to the strong foundation upon which our chapter was built. On September 1, 1979, our name was officially changed to the Hampton-Newport News Alumni Chapter, reflecting our growing influence and expanded dedication to the Hampton Roads community.

Our platform serves as a hub for showcasing the initiatives, events, and community outreach efforts of our chapter. With programs designed to mentor, develop youth, and engage in civic initiatives, we strive to uplift and enhance the quality of life in Hampton Roads.
