On behalf of Pi Rho Omega Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., I would like to welcome you to our website.  Pi Rho Omega chapter is an outstanding chapter that has provided service to the Chesterfield County and metropolitan Richmond community since its inception on April 4, 1987.  We are proud of many hours of dedication that our members display during our many community service programs.  Whether we are walking at various health awareness events, awarding scholarships, hosting seminars, or recognizing our Young Writers, the members of Pi Rho Omega graciously serve with a smile. J  Annually, we host several programs that focus on the National Platform of ESP, Extraordinary Service Programs.  In today’s trying times, ESP becomes more critical as we focus on educating others on the economy.  There’s no better way to help the community…we teach so that others can grow.

 Beyond service…Pi Rho Omega chapter has been recognized on several occasions, and more recently in 2008, as the best large (membership of 76 and above) chapter in the Mid-Atlantic Region.  This accolade speaks highly of our dedication to programs, our commitment to members, and our overall leadership.  We also value a true desire to reactivate and reclaim Sorority sisters in the community.  We welcome members of Alpha Kappa Alpha to visit with Pi Rho Omega and experience the beauty of our chapter.

 Beyond the chapter…We invite you to learn more about our foundation.  The Professionals Reaching Out to the Community Foundation, Inc. (PROC) holds various events throughout the year.  The annual Beautillion is designed to prepare young men for life.  In addition, PROC hosts Bid-off to raise money for charitable efforts.  Through PROC, contributions have been made to the Richmond Black History Museum, NAACP, UNCF, and NCNW, to name a few.

 And beyond…Thank you for visiting our website.  We encourage you to check back often for updates.  As I end this welcome note, I would like to leave you with one thought.  Remember that it takes all of us in the community to positively effect change.  Let’s all work together for the common good. 

 Enjoy traveling through the world of Pi Rho Omega Chapter via technology!
