The Brothers of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc.® — Eta Gamma Lambda Chapter were proud to join the 100 Black Men of Greater Lafayette, Acadiana Black Nurses Association, Sickle Cell Association of South Louisiana, and Flatland Runners in supporting today’s Sickle Cell 3K/1 Mile Walk/Run & Health and Wellness Expo.

Together, we walked and ran to raise awareness for sickle cell disease, promote healthier communities, and stand in support of the individuals and families impacted by it.

We’re grateful for every organization, volunteer, participant, and community member who came together for a cause that matters. Stronger together. Healthier communities. Greater ice cold impact. 🤙🏽❄️

A sweet tradition with a deeper meaning. 🤙🏾

May is Mental Health Awareness Month 💚

On Saturday, May 2, 2026, our chapter proudly partnered with Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated – Eta Chi Omega Chapter to host a Mental Health Summit at Progressive Baptist Church Fellowship Hall. The event focused on encouraging open, honest, and safe conversations that support healthier families and a stronger community.

We extend our sincere thanks to all of our speakers and panelists for sharing their knowledge, personal insight, and professional expertise on mental health awareness, treatment, and the importance of seeking care. The discussions were meaningful, engaging, and impactful for everyone in attendance.

A special thank you to the planning committees from both chapters, especially our chapter’s Mental Health Committee led by Chairman Alfreda Jackson and Co-Chairman Calvary Sampson, for their hard work and dedication in making this event possible.
