Alpha Phi Omega at Emerson College
Service
Alpha Phi Omega's primary focus is to provide volunteer service within four areas:
​
Service to the Campus: Each chapter should carry out projects that benefit the campus and its students.
​
Service to the Community: Chapters should include projects, which benefit the community and its residents. Service to youth — especially the scouting movements — is a special area of consideration.
​
Service to the Nation: Each chapter should develop projects that have an impact beyond the campus and community
​
Service to the Fraternity: Service projects that directly benefit the members of the chapter should be included. Through leadership workshops, conferences, fellowship events, and academic support groups, brothers can challenge and help each other.
We also host the following events during the school year:
​
National Service Week
-
“Alpha Phi Omega has designated the first week of November as National Service Week, in order to unify chapters with a national theme and to inspire expansion of chapter service programs.”
Spring Youth Service Day
-
“Alpha Phi Omega’s Spring Youth Service Day (SYSD) is a Fraternity event in partnership with Youth Service America’s Global Youth Service Day, the largest service event in the world. During April of each year, APO chapters across the nation perform a service project for or with the youth of America.”
-
“Participating in SYSD helps realize Frank Reed Horton’s dream that APO make the world a better place, particularly through service to “the youth of all nations.””​
