Eta Rho Omega Chapter
Reigning Supreme in Service to the Silicon Valley since 1961
Our Legacy
"Through the years" we struggled with main and with might, to capture this vision in sight...
A graduate chapter was our aim, and Alpha Kappa Alpha was our claim.
We numbered twenty. We were strong and bold.
UNITED we stood and moved towards our goal.
On December 2, 1961, on this continent, on this earth...
Eta Rho Omega had its birth.
Greetings!
Welcome to the official website for Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.® Eta Rho Omega Chapter!
Chartered in December of 1961, the members of Eta Rho Omega are women who utilized their talents under the bonds of sisterhood to create programs and provide services that have a long-lasting history in the Silicon Valley. Programs such as our Baccalaureate, where we award scholarships and celebrate high school graduates, and our Debutante Ball where we provide young ladies and men workshops geared towards broadening their knowledge and experiences in areas of educational enrichment, personal growth, community service and etiquette. Then there are our collaborations with community partners, such as Family Supportive Housing, DREAM House and the African American Community Service Agency to provide clothing, toiletries, school supplies, and toys. Whatever is needed, the women of Eta Rho Omega are there to provide and support!
Under the leadership of International President and CEO Charletta Wilson Jacks, we are excited to enter a new era of Sisterhood and look forward to implementing programs that Champion Service, Empower Our Sisterhood, and Transform the World.
I invite you to explore our website, check out our socials via Instagram & Facebook, and attend our events. If you are a member in the San Jose area, looking for a place to connect and serve, please do not hesitate to reach out to us here.
In the spirit of sisterhood and service!
