Good Morning! Definitely refreshed after a great weekend and came in ready to get back into the swing of things. It was ironic that I had my chapter retreat for Alpha Phi Alpha this weekend, and as we were talking about community events this year . . . I just happened to mention the Shoes for Orphan Souls program. They seemed interested in it, so I wanted to get so more information from the powers that be . . . The director
Through a series of emails and phone calls, we found a time that I could meet with her and her associate as I wanted to see what it would take for possibly us to do this program, and if not APhiA, possibly a program that I could present to my Leadership Studies Certification Program.
During the meeting, I presented to her, what Alpha Phi Alpha was, our programs, our events, our numbers and what we wanted to bring to the table. After a series of talks, we realized that our goal which was (1000 shoes) was perhaps to big for just a group of 5 guys. Over a few minutes we began to talk about previous groups and that’s when I saw that perhaps this may be a project that would not be beneficial for just a small group to do . . . But more of a city-wide project. So with the information I took, perhaps I can show this not to just my fraternity but other groups at TLU as well. Only time will tell . . . Stay tuned.
