Chapter Information
Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. was founded by ten men with a vision to join like-minded men of culture, patriotism, and honor in a bond of fraternity.
Our 19 charter members chose to come together and live out the principals of Kappa Alpha Psi in our community.
On December 16, 1962, The St. Petersburg (FL) Alumni Chapter became the 18th alumni chapter chartered in the Southern Province. Since its charter the chapter has hosted two Province meetings: the 27th, held on April 7-9, 1977; and the 41st, held on May 9-12, 1991. In 2005, our chapter hosted a Founder’s Day Celebration and Town Hall Meeting with the past Grand Polemarch, Samuel C. Hamilton.
In 2009, the St. Petersburg (FL) Alumni Chapter became a lifetime member of the NAACP.
For over 63 years the St. Petersburg Alumni Chapter has always been driven to provide service in the public’s interest and in the community we serve. Our chapter takes pride in the positive impact we make and in the lives of the young men we mentor, through our Guide Right and Kappa League Programs.

Brother Tyrone Laury
Brother Andrew Nicholas
Brother Nicholas has been a respiratory therapist for eight years. His role is to aid in the recovery of patients by managing complex diagnostic and life support systems, administer medication, breathing treatments, and identify changes in condition to regulate breathing.
During the pandemic he used his knowledge and skills to care for patients that contracted the COVID-19 virus. The virus attacks the lungs, making it difficult, if not impossible for a patient to breath.
Brother Nicholas continually rises to the challenge and works to save as many lives as he can, during this pandemic.
Thank you for your service Brother Nicholas!
