Welcome to the official mobile app of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Incorporated- Rho Chapter (P), the only single-letter alumni chapter in the fraternity. Our App will allow visitors of the chapter to find out about our events, chat with Chapter members, View Chapter Documents, View Chapter Directory, Pay Chapter Dues, Explore our Social Networks and much more. The ability to effectively communicate with Chapter members will help us continue to develop leaders, promote brotherhood and academic excellence, while providing service and advocacy for our community. We hope to keep visitors engaged with this historic and mighty chapter, chartered on November 3, 1914 in the City of Brotherly Love. Rho Chapter, in keeping with the Fraternity’s Mission Statement, “…develops leaders, promotes Brotherhood and academic excellence, while providing service and advocacy for our communities,” remains committed to the national programs and partnerships of the fraternity. These include “Project Alpha,” “Brothers Keeper,” “Go to High School, Go to College” and “A Voteless People is a Hopeless People.” Working with these programs, as well as local initiatives, allows Rho to effect social and political change on several levels in the Greater Philadelphia Area. We hope you will continue to visit here and stay involved with Rho as we move onward and upward towards our fraternity’s great aims of Manly Deeds, Scholarship and Love for All Mankind!
