Dear Eligible Student,

Thank you for your interest in our 2026 Academic Scholarships.  Since 1929, the Alpha Nu Omega Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. has been a cornerstone of service in the Bay Area. To expand our impact, we formed a strategic partnership in 2014 with our non-profit affiliate, the Pearl & Ivy Community Corporation (PICC).

Since the inception of PICC, our joint mission has been to identify and invest in the next generation of community leaders. Together, we have distributed thousands of dollars in scholarships to students who embody excellence and a commitment to service.

Today, our chapter consists of over 170 professional African American women dedicated to continuing this legacy. We invite you to be a part of this tradition.

Key Information:

• We offer multiple opportunities, and you may apply for any number of scholarships. (Only one may be awarded per student.)

• Deadline: Friday, April 24, 2026.

• Notification: Awardees will be notified in May 2026.
