2021 is Alpha Xi Delta's Year! In May 2021, Alpha Xi Delta and Ivonne Delgado will be installed as President of HAPA. We're excited to announce the theme and logo of the Installation luncheon and the news that Alpha Xi Delta National President Micaela Isler will on hand for the festivities!

Through a generous grant from Insperity, we started a special Alpha Xi Delta Scholarship to be awarded at the HAPA/HAPF Scholarship Luncheon in 2021--the year our own Ivonne Delgado will serve as HAPA President. The scholarship will be presented by National President Micaela Isler. Will you help to build our fund? Since its inception in 1987, the HAPF Scholarship Fund has awarded 572 scholarships, totaling $983,600.00, to women enrolled in accredited colleges and universities across the country. $61,300 was awarded to 23 collegians in May of 2019. Originally designed for residents of Harris County, in 2021 the scholarship will be opened for residents of the Greater Houston area. Often this financial aid makes the difference for many young women, enabling them to continue their college education. | | |

First Ever Virtual National Convention June 2021 Out of an abundance of caution, National Council has decided to cancel our in-person Convention due to the pandemic. Many of our NPC Sisters have also made this difficult decision to cancel their conventions and in-person events. We are excited to share that we will be hosting our first ever virtual National Convention from June 25-27, 2021. We are working hard to provide a robust virtual experience that will leave you feeling inspired and excited for the future, all from the comfort of your own home. Information regarding cost, registration and a schedule of events will be released in January 2021. We will be updating www.alphaxideltaconvention.org as information is released and will share on our social media channels as well. Please mark your calendar for June 25-27 and be part of history with our first virtual National Convention! |
