Alpha Phi International Fraternity is a membership organization dedicated to promoting sisterhood, cultivating leadership, encouraging intellectual curiosity, and advocating service. Alpha Phi develops character for a lifetime! Founded in 1872 by ten forward thinking women at Syracuse University. Alpha Phi is now one of the largest women's fraternities in North America. Proceeds from the KC Art 4 HeArt event go directly to the Alpha Phi Foundation's Heart to Heart Grant, which supports women's cardiac care.
