Alpha
Alpha Kappa Zeta awarded its first scholarship to Miss Audri Flores an honor
graduate from Northgate High School in Newnan, Georgia. Audri plans on
attending Georgia State University in hopes of becoming a licensed mental
health worker.
Audri
has participated in several community service projects alongside the Alpha
Alpha Kappa Zeta chapter. Audri was surprised at her
school’s awards ceremony on May 3, 2016 by the chapter with the scholarship
award. She assumed AAKZ chapter members were present at the event to show
support for her academic achievements which were being recognized that evening and
unaware the Sorority was presenting her with a scholarship. Audri was overjoyed
when Scholarship Coordinator Susette Gooden made the presentation naming her
the recipient of the $500 award. “I always wanted to get one of the giant
checks,” she joked with the chapter members afterward.
The
Newnan Times-Herald captured the joyous moment in the newspaper.
