KAPPAC was founded to support, educate and inform the African American community in particular about the political process. Its intent also includes financially supporting both elected officials and worthy candidates for local, state or federal office who share the community’s interests and priorities on legislation that will impact lives.
KAPPAC’s annual fund raising goal is $600,000. The primary target audience for membership in Phase I of KAPPAC’s evolution is members of historically Black Greek letter organizations (BGLOs). As a result, KAPPAC expects to position itself to impact the decision making process on appointments, resource distribution and laws that govern the daily lives of African-Americans and the entire country. KAPPAC will allow like-minded citizens, regardless of race, creed, color, religion, or political party affiliation, to pool resources in order to influence the decisions of who gets what, how much and how often.
