Trustees

Established in 1982, the Kappa Alpha Order Educational Foundation (KAOEF) is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. The Foundation provides grants for educational programs of the fraternity, such as the Number I’s Leadership Institute and enhanced Province Councils, and provides scholarships to deserving graduate and undergraduate students.

The volunteer leadership of the KAOEF Board of Trustees provides the vision for the future of the Foundation. From their gifts, networking, development, and foresight, the future of the Foundation remains sound. Meet these brothers and know that what they do allows KA to continue to provide the best support and training for our undergraduate brothers.
