Renew Your KOK Membership or Join Today!
KOK members enjoy wonderful sisterhood events, a supportive community, and valuable networking opportunities. But joining an alumnae chapter doesn't mean you have to attend every event. Your membership dues help KOK support two local collegiate chapters--Iota Nu (UCSD) and Kappa Lambda (USD). A portion of your dues also goes to the national organization to keep Alpha Chi Omega strong across the country.
It's easy to join. Simply fill out the registration form and pay online, or bring a check to the next event.

Congratulations to Stephanie Sibley on her acceptance to Alpha Chi Omega's second alumnae global service initiative. This year's initiative will be held in Woodstock, Virginia, from April 20 to April 23. Stephanie was just one of 11 alumnae accepted to the initiative. She'll be spending her time and energy in support of the Response Inc. domestic violence shelter, and her duties will include building, cleaning, painting, and supporting the local community. Stephanie, all of us at KOK are so proud of you and your commitment to service!

Celebrate Healthy Relationships Week with Alpha Chi Omega Night Out
|
As part of Healthy Relationships Week, sisters worldwide are invited to come together for Alpha Chi Omega Night Out to connect with one another and celebrate our sisterhood.Our goal is to engage as many sisters as possible in a fun night (or day) of fellowship and sisterhood.
Check out the Alpha Chi Night Out events hosted by alumnae chapters to find an event near you.Or, plan your own event. Here are just a few ideas: coffee, drinks, brunch, KOK Lunch Bunch, a walk along the beach, playdates, shopping in person, or a Skype/FaceTime/phone call with a sister in another city, state, or country. All you have to do to participate is spend a little time enjoying the company of another Alpha Chi Omega! Make sure to capture the fun by taking photos and posting them to Instagram, Twitter and Facebook using the hashtag #AXONightOu |
