Welcome from the Polemarch:

On behalf of the Distinguished Gentlemen of the Stamford Alumni Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi®
Fraternity, Incorporated in conjunction with the Stamford Alumni Diamond Foundation, Incorporated, I
welcome you to our 11th Annual Achievement.

The past two years have been challenging for our community, whether it be financial, social, or personal.
We have continued to support our community through our community service campaigns for serving food
and donating food, and toys to those in our community that were most in need. We also want to thank
you our generous supporters and partners for your commitment to assist the youth mentoring and
scholarship programs.

During the past 2 years we experienced difficulties and it impacted our scholars and, these scholarship
recipients persevered and overcame any difficulty with a “New Normal”. We are happy to recognize them
and all the students who will be graduating this Summer. I am thankful that you have chosen to continue
to embrace the achievements of these students and our programs this year through a pandemic.
I want to thank you for joining us virtually and making a difference in the life of a scholar.
“An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.” – Benjamin Franklin

As Polemarch of the Stamford Alumni Chapter, I am truly grateful to be amongst a group of men
dedicated to serving this community. Together, with your help, we can unite this “village” to raise our
children. Many thanks to all of our Platinum, Gold, and Silver sponsors. We are indebted to the
tremendous leadership of our Achievement Gala Chairman, Clarence Zachery, and the entire committee.
Let’s all have a great time!

Regards,

Benjamin Jackson Polemarch
Stamford Alumni Chapter
