It’s time again to participate in March for Babies – a major fundraiser of the March of Dimes.  Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. and the March of Dimes have a partnership that goes back to the early 1980’s.  Alpha Phi Alpha’s mission is to develop leaders and promote brotherhood & academic excellence, while providing service and advocacy for our communities. 

Here is an opportunity to serve our community!  Alpha Phi Alpha has asked that all Brothers support the March of Dimes by helping them raise funds.  Once again Xi Lambda Chapter will do that by having a team at the Lakefront Walk on Sunday, April 25th.  The theme for this year is “A Mother of A Movement” and you guessed it – the march is virtual.

Use the following link to make a donation or to register for Xi Lambda’s team:

Thank You!  

You can continue to help by participating in the walk, by soliciting donations from family & friends, or by just making a donation.

Additional information is provided at this site.   You can also contact Ron Kimble at [email protected] or 773/418-7298.  Thanks for helping us reach our goal and thanks for supporting the March of Dimes.

10th Year Alphaversary

2313 St. Paul Street
Baltimore, MD 

Recently I took an Alphaversary trip with four of the most amazing guys that God has allowed to grace the earth. These men are my brothers.

During our trip we were able to be transparent and vulnerable one to the other, which was refreshing and rejuvenating to say the least. I thank God that during the trip, not only were we able to inspire and encourage one another, but as two of our ships are already life members, the remaining three of us made our commitment there at the headquarters. There were many historical items that we were able to appreciate. We took memorable photos both in Baltimore and DC. However, the two most surreal moments were being in the room where Brother James “Tiny” Blanton once occupied, and to stand at the monument dedicated to Brother Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. I would encourage all Alpha men to reunite with your ships and make the journey. I pray that it will be as great for you as it was and is for all of us. 06!!!!!!!
