Chapter History
The Hampton-Newport News (VA) Alumni Charter
KAPPA ALPHA PSI, INC..
On August 4, 1945, 17 Peninsula Kappas proudly accepted their charter
from Province Polemarch W. Henry Green, and Laurel Wreath holder Judge
Armond W. Scott. The Hampton Alumni Chapter would become only the second
chapter to be chartered in Tidewater.
For much of its history the chapter held its meetings in Newport News, VA, and the chapter's membership was consistently comprised of Kappa men from both Hampton and Newport News. In light of this, in the late 1970s, the chapter petitioned the Grand Board to alter its designation to "Hampton-Newport News." The new designation would be more in line with the chapter's demographic makeup and would ensure a unified Kappa presence on the Peninsula. The petition was approved in September 1979.
The Hampton Newport News (VA) Alumni Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi “Achievement
Foundation Inc.” is the charitable arm of our chapter and it was
established in 2002. It is a
non-profit, tax exempt, publicly supported organization.
The chapter's 62+year history has been replete with organizational and
individual achievement. From its infancy to the present time, it has remained
fervently true to the creed and objectives of Kappa Alpha Psi, and has
worked to promote the welfare of humanity.
