Alpha Kappa Alpha - Rho Zeta Omega

Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.

Rho Zeta Omega Chapter

Celebrates 25 Years of Service

 

Rho Zeta Omega Chapter was chartered by 45 women of the Metro Atlanta area, as a graduate chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. on April 30, 1988. Congresswoman Frederica Wilson, who was the South Atlantic Regional Director at the time, conducted the chartering ceremony.

 

It was Mae Carter Danzy who conceived of the idea to have a graduate chapter in the Marietta/Cobb County area. The group was very active in the North Suburban Atlanta community, upholding the ideals of public service that were established by the founders of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. and has continued throughout history.

 

Today the chapter has grown to almost 150 members, who continue to uphold its mission of building a strong cohesive organization that positively impacts the lives of families and communities.  Rho Zeta Omega is a premier provider of community service programs which encourages high scholastic achievement.  The impact of these programs is exhibited by the national, regional and local recognition received for exemplary programs in the areas of scholarships, education, health, economics, social justice and civic engagement.

 

Currently Rho Zeta Omega provides programs and services in the following areas: Emerging Young Leaders at Tapp Middle School (6^th – 8^th grade girls); Health initiatives with a focus on Environmental Stewardship and Asthma prevention for young children and other programs; Global Poverty initiatives; Economic Security initiatives; Social Justice and Human Rights initiatives with a focus on children aging out of foster care and human trafficking; and Internal Leadership for External Service.  Other long term programs in the community include; the Kids Club Afterschool Program at Park Street Elementary School, who is also a partner-in-education, along with Lockheed Elementary School. The Golden Citizens program targets senior citizens. The College Prep program is for high school girls attending Cobb County Schools. The Scholarship Program which awards scholarships to deserving young high school seniors, has awarded over $222,000 since 1988. Rho Zeta Omega participates in numerous charitable giving projects each year as they give back to the community.   

Rho Zeta Omega will hold a commemorative program to honor its charter members and celebrate its 25^th Anniversary at the Westin Buckhead on April 28^th.

According to statistics, every nine seconds in the US a woman is assaulted or beaten. Domestic violence is the leading cause of injury to women – more than car accidents, muggings, and rapes combined. According to the American Cancer Society, breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in the United States, other than skin cancer. And, it is the second leading cause of cancer death in women, after lung cancer.

October is Domestic Violence and Breast Cancer Awareness Month and Rho Zeta Omega Chapter, in conjunction with The PEARL Foundation, Inc., and the Chi Gamma Gamma Chapter of
Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc., will host an awareness seminar on these causes, Thursday,
October 18, 6:00 p.m. at the Pizza Bar, 1450 Veterans Memorial Hwy, SE, Mableton, GA 30126.

Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. through our Social Justice and Human Rights initiative and our Health initiative, is committed to help bring awareness to the crime of domestic violence and to help in the fight to cure breast cancer.  Guest speakers, Chyna McGarity with the Purple Casket Campaign and Law Enforcement officials, will speak on the topic of Domestic Violence Awareness and Prevention.  Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority member, Trish Atwater, and representatives from Breast Cancer Awareness Advocacy groups will speak about Breast Cancer Awareness and Prevention.

Organizers will be collecting your old cell phones at the event to benefit victims of domestic violence. See you there!

On August 2, 2012, Rho Zeta Omega members will deliver over 1000 school supplies to Foreverfamily, Inc., an agency that supports children with incarcerated parents. Chapter members collected donations over the summer and will present them just in time for the first week of school.

 

According to its website, Foreverfamily is the nation’s first and only nonprofit organization in Georgia solely dedicated to helping children who, by no fault of their own, have had to struggle with a unique set of challenges due to their parent’s imprisonment. Too often, these include a sense of shame, anxiety and fear, and social stigma, tied to their parent’s imprisonment—all of which can become evident in deep emotional withdrawal or behavioral outbursts. Since its inception in 1987, Foreverfamily (originally known as AIM) has helped to enrich the lives of more than 10,000 children.

 

This project was organized by Carlicia Porter under Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.'s Social Justice and Human Rights Initiative. Angela Bowers-Ervin serves as the committee chairman.

 

The Alpha Kappa Alpha Social Justice and Human Rights Initiative addresses gender equality issues including: human trafficking and domestic violence, services for children with incarcerated parents, youth aging out of foster care, and children in homeless shelters.

 Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., Rho Zeta Omega Chapter, in conjunction with The PEARL Foundation, Inc., partnered with Designs by Lydia and The Home Depot Foundation to make a wish come true for Fox 5’s Freddie Mac Foundation’s Wednesday's Child – Maya on Wednesday, April 18, 2012, at the young girl’s new home in Stockbridge, GA.

An entire suite, consisting of a bedroom, playroom, and full bath received the makeover. There were hours of preparation prior to the execution to make this a reality. The bedroom was designed and decorated in a princess theme with white princess furniture, a custom-made canopy, a beautiful chandelier, and a charming wall mural painted by Silvia Cannady of Home Depot Store #178 Riverdale. The playroom was designed to be a fun, learning environment with many built-ins and bright colors. The connecting bath complemented the playroom. Walls in the bedroom and playroom were also adorned with some of Maya’s artwork that was placed in lovely frames to add personal touches to the rooms.

Lydia Felix of Designs by Lydia provided the design concept and The Home Depot Foundation provided a $5900 grant for the furnishings. Joanne Davis and her team from the Griffin, GA Home Depot Store and Stephen Frederick and his team from the Greensboro, GA Home Depot Store provided labor to help execute Lydia’s total redesign.

Members of Alpha Kappa Alpha’s Rho Zeta Omega Chapter were humbled and excited to embark on this endeavor in support of one of its Social Justice and Human Rights program initiatives – Foster Care, and more specifically, Youth Aging out of Foster Care. Angela Bowers-Ervin, chairman of the Social Justice and Human Rights Committee, and committee members Barbara Morris and Sharyn Ellison were the inspirations behind the room makeover.

The room makeover aired  on May 23, 2012 on Fox 5’s Wednesday's Child segment.

Atlanta-Area AKAs Work to End Domestic Violence
Partnership Against Domestic Violence, Georgia’s Largest Nonprofit Domestic Violence Organization to Receive 1st Annual Alpha Kappa Alpha MAFD Legacy of Service Award

ATLANTA, GEORGIA (January 20, 2012) – On Saturday, January 28, local chapters of
Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. ®(AKA) will recognize the Partnership Against Domestic Violence (PADV) with its first annual AKA Metropolitan Atlanta Founders’ Day (MAFD) Community Service Award. Established in 2012, the AKA MAFD Legacy of Service Award, which includes a $1,000 contribution to the recipient, was created to recognize an organization whose mission aligns with the program initiatives of Alpha Kappa Alpha.

“Alpha Kappa Alpha is committed to improving the lives of women and girls,” said Elva Wheeler, Chairman, AKA Metro-Atlanta Founders’ Day 2012. “Domestic violence isn’t just a private issue. It’s an issue that affects families, and therefore, affects communities – all communities. That makes it a human rights issue.”

According to a recent survey released by CNN and the Center for Disease Control (CDC) in December 2011, one out of every three women in the United States will be a victim of domestic violence in her lifetime. Statistics are increasing rather than decreasing. According to the CDC, nearly 5.3 million intimate partner victimizations occur each year among U.S. women ages 18 and older. This domestic violence results in nearly 2 million injuries and nearly 1,300 deaths.

“The PADV’s mission aligns with the social justice commitments of Alpha Kappa Alpha,” Wheeler said. “We are honored to have such an organization receive our first AKA Metro-Atlanta Founders’ Day Legacy of Service Award.”

As part of Alpha Kappa Alpha’s 104th celebration of Founders’ Day, the AKA Metro-Atlanta Founders’ Day Legacy of Service Award will be presented to PADV at a public news conference on January 28 at 10:45 am at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in downtown Atlanta. Representatives from the PADV and AKA will be on hand for the presentation. More than 1,000 members of
Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated® from throughout the metro-Atlanta area are expected to attend a members-only luncheon program that celebrates sisterhood and service.

Guest speakers included Georgia State Representatives, Stacey Evans, Sam Teasley, and Soror Alisha Thomas Morgan; and Jennifer Swain, State Coordinator of the A Future Not a Past (AFNAP) campaign. Guests were presented with some alarming statistics for Georgia and the nation and they were challenged to a call for action: Now that you know, tell somebody else. Attend a rally. Write to your legislators. Donate to the many safe houses/agencies that are helping these young girls through their traumatic experiences to lead the productive lives intended for them. Hide

Every year, thousands of men, women and children fall into the hands of traffickers, in the United States and abroad, even in the Metro-Atlanta areas.  A group of concerned citizens, community leaders and politicians will come together to talk about this crime, what’s happening in our communities and how we can help combat this crime against our children and other loved ones. During the seminar, the history of sex trafficking will be discussed along with how to recognize victims, the Senate Bills, the authority to intervene and who should be contacted. A special presentation from a former victim will also be presented. The seminar will be held at Zion Baptist Church, 165 Lemon St, Marietta GA, near the square, on September 15, at 6:30 PM.

Each May, National Foster Care Month provides an opportunity to shine a light on the experiences of the more than 400,000 children and youth in the foster care system. The campaign raises awareness about the urgent needs of these young people and encourages citizens from every walk of life to get involved – as foster or adoptive parents, volunteers, mentors, employers or in other ways.

 

Every year, approximately 30,000 young people leave the foster care system without lifelong families – most at age 18. On their own, these young adults must navigate a weakened economy offering fewer jobs and less support for vital services such as housing. They need – and deserve – caring adults who love and support them.

 

The Rho Zeta Omega Social Justice and Human Rights Committee has answered the call to service by supporting Youth Aging Out of Foster Care in the months of April and May. In April, the committee hosted a “Successful Living” workshop series which consisted of two life skills workshops. The first was held April 16th and entitled, “Successful Living on Your Own.” The workshop covered the topics of “money management” and “staying on the right side of the law.” The second workshop was held on April 30th and entitled “Finding and Maintaining Employment.” This workshop covered the topics of the job search, resume writing, interviewing skills, and the importance of networking. There were 27 youth in attendance.

 

On April 23rd, Rho Zeta Omega helped to sponsor our “Pearl of the Prom.” Rho Zeta Omega Members graciously donated the prom essentials for a young lady transitioning from the foster care system into independent living. Chapter Members donated 8 dresses, (from which she could choose), a gift card for shoes, monetary donations for hair, make-up, manicure, pedicure and prom accessories. The young lady was overjoyed with the support of Alpha Kappa Alpha members and described her prom day as “excellent!”

 

Finally, Rho Zeta Omega and participants in the Youth Aging out of Foster Care program were selected by the Atlanta Braves “Be Our Guest Program” to be treated to an evening of Major League Baseball on May 28th in support of National Foster Care Month.

The Social Justice and Human Rights committee facilitated the final "Successful Living" Workshop for Youth Aging out of Foster Care on April 30.  The topic was "Finding and Maintaining Employment" included interviewing techniques, role playing and valuable information on the job hunting cycle.  

 

The second half of the day was a lunch discussion entitled "Life After Foster Care" with guest speaker Donnie Olajuwon. Mr. Olajuwon shared his personal experiences about life in the foster care system and his road to success. He was a great motivational speaker and well received by the youth. 

 

The Social Justice and Human Rights Committee in support of National Foster Care Month, will regroup with the youth on May 28th and attend the Atlanta Braves vs Cinncinati Reds baseball game at Turner Field.  The tickets were donated to the PEARL Foundation for the Youth Aging Out of Foster Care as a part of the Atlanta Braves "Be our Guest" program.

 

The next activity will focus on the support of "Children of Incarcerated Parents." Rho Zeta Omega has fun activities planned for the children in May.

We often take our blessings for granted and do not realize how difficult life can be for a young girl without the essential items to maintain proper hygiene and grooming. Rho Zeta Omega's Social Justice and Human Rights Committee identified an opportunity to fill a void. The members of the chapter collected and donated over 2,825 toiletry items to Wellspring for Girls, an agency that supports young girls victimized by human trafficking.

 

This project was organized by Rho Zeta Omega members Christy Jackson and Kwanza Atkinson, supported by the leadership of Angela Bowers-Ervin, Chairman of the Social Justice and Human rights Committee. Chapter member Priscilla Thornton, Vice Principal of Harrison High School, and the Harrison High Spanish Club joined the cause and made a huge toiletry donation. Members of the chapter delivered the toiletry items to the Wellspring Treasures retail location. Additionally, Rho Zeta Omega member Brenda Jordan, donated 15 beautiful handmade pillowcases to the girls.

 

Jamie Clements, Assistant Store Manager of Wellsprings Treasures described how much the toiletry donation and the pillowcases will mean to the girls and expressed his sincere gratitude for the generosity of Rho Zeta Omega. He provided a tour of the store and explained that they accept donations of gently used clothing, accessories, and household items, which they resell to the public. The proceeds of the sales benefit Wellspring for Girls. Jennifer Swain, the statewide coordinator for Georgia's effort to combat human trafficking was also present for the donation. She thanked the representatives of Rho Zeta Omega for supporting the girls as they move forward on the journey towards recovery.  For more information about Wellspring for Girls, please visit the link: http://www.wellspringliving.org/for-girls.php.
