The AF Kappa Scholarship Endowment Fund

The Alexandria-Fairfax Alumni Chapter Kappa Scholarship Endowment Fund (KSEF), established on March 8, 1990, is a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to supporting African-American students through scholarships, grants, and financial aid. Each year, we award ten scholars $8,000, distributed over four years, to help them achieve their academic goals. Our students attend a range of institutions, from HBCUs to Ivy League schools, with a graduation rate exceeding 90%.

Beyond financial aid, KSEF offers mentorship, career counseling, and job placement assistance. We are proud of our thriving STEM program, where students build robots, program tablets, and construct computers, competing at regional and national STEM conferences. Through education, guidance, and innovation, we empower students to excel and shape a brighter future.
