Programs
Guide Right
Our local Guide Right Program has directly and indirectly impacted the lives of thousands through a number of different initiatives. One of our major guide right activities is our Kappa League program which is the oldest running of it’s kind in the country. We actively mentor, train, and develop leaders of tomorrow in this program which includes young men in grades 7-12. We provide an average of 15 young men per year with meaningful and beneficial experiences such as: college visits, community service activities, leadership training, and more.
Scholarships
Each year the Dayton Alumni Kappa Alpha Psi Foundation holds an open application process for any graduating senior in and around the Dayton area to receive scholarship money towards their college education.
As a non-profit and with our sole function being to aid the youth of the community the amount of scholarships we are able to awards is solely based on the amount of donations and funds we are able to raise each year. Our goal is to consistently increase the mount of scholarships we are able to provide each year.
Infant Mortality & Safe Sleep Training
Recently the Dayton Alumni Kappa Alpha Psi Foundation has taken on the task of reducing the rate of infant mortality in our community through awareness and prevention training.
This is in response to a nationwide initiative based on trending statistics that show increasing rates of children that do not live past infancy due to unsafe practices, and preventable circumstances.
Fatherhood Matters Program
The Dayton Alumni Kappa Alpha Psi Foundation is rolling out a Nurturing Fathers program intended to reunite and strengthen families in and around the Dayton area.
The program utilizes a 13 week evidence based curriculum designed to help transform individuals and their families. This is based on a study that indicated children with more involved fathers experienced fewer behavioral problems and has a better chance of achievement.
