Clinton College Receives Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. Endowment

Clinton College Receives Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. Endowment
Posted By: Kennedy Williams on August 27, 2021


Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated (AKA), in partnership with the Educational Advancement Foundation (EAF), presented an endowment in the amount of $50,000 to Clinton College as a part of the organization’s AKA-HBCU Endowment Fund.

At its recent virtual international convention, the AKA Educational Advancement Foundation presented unrestricted endowment funds to 35 schools, including Clinton.

"It is undeniable that HBCUs cultivate leaders whose impact is felt locally in their communities and globally around the world.



We are proud to have fully committed our endowment funds to these deserving schools and their students," said President Glover. "Our investment lends credence to the significance of HBCUs and underscores their contributions to the world."

"We are very appreciative of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc, and International President Dr. Glenda Glover for this generous gift,” said Dr. Lester McCorn, president of Clinton College. "This endowment will help in providing financial support to our students as we continue to prepare them to become transformative leaders in a global society.”
