My ultimate endeavor since attending community college has been my involvement in school, specifically with Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society. As an engineering major I am limited to a diminutive amount of free time, due to the quantity and difficulty of my classes. However, this limitation and the fact that my ride to school is a two hour trip on public transportation, has not stopped me from participating in extracurricular activities. Applying my time management and responsibility skills that I acquired from taking several math base classes at the same time, I managed to become a member of clubs and attain leadership roles. I first became the Vice President of Service, for Phi Theta Kappa and organized service events on campus and outside of campus. Our chapter participated in canyons and beaches clean ups, with the I Love a Clean San Diego Organization, fed homeless people and people with disabilities as well as other service engagements. I also researched for individual service opportunities that Phi Theta Kappa members could have participated on their own. Recently, it has become more complex to manage classes and extracurricular activities since I decided to step up in Phi Theta Kappa when our elected president …show more content…
I also closed a partnership with EOPS, one of the school 's programs that provides support for disadvantaged students. This partnership provides an opportunity for students who achieve excellence in academics to join an internationally recognize honor society, which they might have not been able to afford on their own due to their economic situation. As an individual who understands the struggle of a low income family, I am delighted to provide this opportunity for those who qualify. I hope this is only the beginning of what I can offer for Phi Theta Kappa and my
As a student, I passionately feel that your college experience is what you make of it. I wanted to make my experience one consisting of philanthropy, scholarship, and leadership. As of 2016, I am an event chair, for Relay for Life. Relay for Life is one of the American Cancer society’s largest fundraisers, al over the nation. I chose to undertake this role to honor all of who have touched my heart, as well as everyone who has battled cancer.
Some of the highlights of the Sorority were belonging to such a wonderful Sisterhood, attending my first Regional and having the opportunity to add to my leadership skills, for that I am so grateful. At this time I am the primary caregiver for my mother, working on completing a portfolio in Nonprofit Management by December 2015 and working from home. I am available to help recruit, volunteer, make referrals, and will make certain
Through research online, I am aware that Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc., was founded at Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana on January 5th, 1911 by ten visionary men; Elder Watson Diggs, Ezra D. Alexander, Byron Kenneth Armstrong, Henry Thomas Asher, Marcus Peter Blakemore, Paul Waymond Caine, George Wesley Edmonds, Guy Levis Grant, Edward Giles Irvin and John Milton Lee. Also through my research, I have learned that the organization is comprised of men who aim to carry out its motto of “Achievement in Every Field of Human Endeavor.” And that due to the organizations focus on leadership and service, I am aware of some of its well-known initiatives such as the Kappa Beautillion from the Guide Right Program, Kappa League and its philanthropy

Being an active member of civic engagement in both my community and my high school has served me great pride within these past four years. I knew before my freshman year that I wanted to get involved right away in hopes that I would make friends and help some people out, but I truly had no idea what kind of impact my involvement would give me. I started off by simply enrolling in some clubs, including KeyClub and FBLA, but then worked my way up to eventually becoming President of both clubs by my senior year. I have also been a voted class officer all four years of high school, and won Class President my senior year. I am a leader in my school's SADD chapter as a member of the Executive Council as well, and find leadership around other female athletes as a four year varsity athlete myself.
My increased desire to become an Alpha Man has been driven by my lifelong history and encounters with many of my past educators that are Alphas. I grew up in a typical underrepresented environment that had a big impact on my everyday life, from drugs, gangs, and a lack of ambition. Somehow that changed when I went to school, there where men in my schools that looked the same as the ones in my community, but the way they dressed and carried themselves was different. I later learned they were men of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Inc.

When asked to express why I should be awarded the honor & pleasure of being apart this great sorority; I must admit I was a bit overwhelmed but also very humbled. However, I am reminded of the great women Delta Sigma Theta has helped mold some of the most influential women in the world. I want to be apart of the most illustrious sorority organization.
Taking an active role in improving one’s community is something I truly stand behind. Being a part of AED was able to provide me extraordinary opportunities for service, such as volunteering at the Run with your Heart 5K, and Palmetto Place. I joined the service committee of Alpha Epsilon Delta (AED) to create opportunities that will benefit the local community, inspire other members to be more involved in their community, and help them feel the same feelings I have when I do service with AED. I was excited to gain more responsibilities, and since joining I have led many of AED’s service events. Furthermore, I established a partnership with Homeless
By active community service, leadership roles, and hard work, I have learned the incredible importance of academic achievement, character, leadership, and service. Through these things, I have been substantially prepared by the Beta Club to serve others as I depart high school and
Why do I want to be a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority incorporated? Since I was a little girl I had grown up on the expectation that once I got to college I would pursue joining the organization Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority incorporated. Because this was instilled in me since I could really talk I never really question the idea. But once I got to college I began to truly question why I wanted to be a member.
I will make sure to do my part by leading by example, serving my community and school, staying true to myself, and performing in school to the best of my ability. It would be an honor to be a part of such an extraordinary program in which I can better myself and my community. I am so thankful to the many teachers who have considered me as a candidate for the National Honor Society. As I aspire to become a member of this organization, I will make it my duty to be an active member in my community and will maintain my leadership, service, character, and scholarship

Growing up I have always set high standards for myself academically and extracurricularly. I participate in many clubs at my school including BETA club and National Honor Society.
