AKAs Hold Community Impact Day
On Saturday, May 26, 2018, members of the Zeta Alpha Omega
Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Incorporated®
participated in the Community Impact Day for 1908 Playground
Mobilization Day. The event was held at the YWCA Northwest
Ohio.
The project involved the members refreshing the playground
equipment and restoring the flower beds with new plantings
of flowers and mulch. The chapter was excited to assist
with the additions and improvements that Zeta Alpha Omega
donated to the park.
“This place is special and plays a vital role in our
community. This was our way of giving back to the families
and the staff here at the YWCA,” said Chairman, Cheryl
Phillips.
The project was overseen by the chapter’s Environmental
Ownership Committee.
Playground Mobilization Days are part of a global campaign,
started by the first sorority for African-American women.
The goal of the initiative is to ensure that children have
safe and inviting places to play by restoring, refreshing,
and renewing 1,908 playgrounds internationally. |
