Frisco (TX) Alumni Chapter Diamond Achievers Scholarship Gala – June 18, 2022
The Frisco (TX) Alumni Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Incorporated hosted our first annual Diamond Achievers Scholarship Gala on Saturday, June 18, 2022, at the Hilton Granite Hotel in Frisco, Texas. The Nupes and guests "Partied with a Purpose" while raising more than $19,500 dollars (and counting) for our Diamond Achievers foundation through “text-me-now” donations.
The money raised will be used to provide scholarships and assistance to deserving students as well as those in need in the Frisco community. Proceeds from the event's Ad booklet and ticket sales will also go to the foundation.
Upon arrival at the gala, the more than 300 attendees were greeted to a lively social hour where they enjoyed a variety of hors d’oeuvres and cocktails, mingled with old friends, and made new ones while professional photographers snapped candid photos to commemorate the evening.
After the social hour, everyone adjourned to the ballroom where the evening's festivities were preceded by a brief formal presentation by Brother Keith Maddox, Polemarch of the Frisco (TX) Alumni Chapter, along with several other members and city dignitaries. The presentation concluded with a rousing rendition of the Kappa Alpha Psi Hymn sung by the more than 150 brothers in attendance.
To cap off the evening, everyone enjoyed dinner and danced the night away to the music of a live band and DJ.
