“Service was such a huge part of my life back home and I really wanted to keep that passion throughout college. I tried out other service organizations on campus that I didn’t click with and then I heard about APO from my roommate and a friend on my freshman floor. I truly can’t thank them enough for helping me make one of the best decisions of my college career.”

Camera Cottingham, Alpha Phi Chapter at Washington University

“I joined APO because I wanted to find opportunities to do community service often while still having some flexibility in my schedule. I had also heard from a friend in a different APO chapter that it was a great experience. When I joined, I was really excited to find a group of caring, like-minded individuals who enjoyed community service as much as I did. Even though most of them were total strangers at the time, the group as a whole was so welcoming and gave me a sense of community.”

Navina Magesh Kumar, Alpha Theta Eta Chapter at Northeastern University

“APO has impacted my life tremendously. I've learned to be more confident, open-minded, and outgoing. APO has taught me how to make connections with other organizations that will become beneficial for the future. I want to help contribute this semester by bringing more service events to the chapter as well as being able to further improve the professionalism of the Fraternity.”

Anthony Munoz, Alpha Eta Gamma Chapter at University of California, Merced

“As a second-year freshman, I joined APO for many reasons. The main two being I wanted to be a part of the community as well as contribute to it. Whether it was on campus or off, Alpha Phi Omega provided me with great friendships, leadership capabilities, and community service that I learn valuable information and insight from. What I like most about APO is the bond, it’s lifelong.”

Tasia Brown, Iota Mu Chapter at University of South Carolina

“I joined APO because I wanted to find a place on campus to do community service as well as a way to get to know people and this seemed like an amazing option! I was right! APO is amazing and I have learned so much from being a brother! It got me out of my shy shell and has helped me become a better person, friend, and leader both inside and out of the chapter! The people that I have met in APO are some of my closest friends. APO is one of the best decisions I have made and I love it and recommend it to anyone looking for a new thing to do on campus!”

Liz DiRuzza, Omicron Iota Chapter at Worcester Polytechnic Institute

“I joined APO my second semester freshman year and let me tell you, I’m so glad I did! I have always had a passion for community service and APO gave me the opportunity to volunteer my time more than I ever imagined it would. Not only that, but I have found my best friends within this organization. Everyone I have met through Alpha Phi Omega is extremely welcoming, caring, and encouraging to one another. If you are looking for an organization with a multitude of service and a supportive group of friends, Alpha Phi Omega is the organization for you!”
