“Being able to join kappas has been truly an amazing opportunity. It gave me a home where people accepted me and welcomed me with open arms. I was able to experience true sisterhood and build long lasting connections in just a short amount of time! I’m so glad I was able to find a community that accepts me and surrounds me with love and support. I’ve been given a space to grow not only as a person, but also as a leader and friend. Through every event, conversation, and memory shared, I’ve learned more about myself and gained experiences that I will carry with me for years to come. Kappas has become more than just an organization to me; it has become family, and I am so grateful for everyone who has supported me and made my experience so meaningful!”

“Ever since I walked into the first recruitment event for Kappas I knew this was going to be my home away from home. Kappas allowed me to meet life long friends and take on opportunities outside of my comfort zone. I constantly feel supported in every environment with people who fill me with their positivity and encouragement. I am so happy to be part of an organization that aligns with my personal and professional goals!”

— Thy Luong *Florena*

“I was a second-year student who was still trying to find my community on campus when I learned about Kappas. I went to recruitment events and immediately enjoyed the conversations I had with sisters. Beyond the people, I was really drawn to the platform Kappas provides to get involved both within and beyond Northeastern. Learning about opportunities to work with organizations like Hearts of Dinner, ATASK, PAAC, and MGC showed me that Kappas wasn’t just a sorority, it was a community that encouraged meaningful connections, leadership, and service. That made me feel like it was a place where I truly belonged.”

OUR PILLARS

SISTERHOOD

“For me, Kappas has always been like the Giving Tree. Throughout my journey in this sisterhood, I’ve been given priceless memories, lifelong friendships, and a safe space where I can truly be myself, which is exactly why I feel so compelled to give back. Every sister has been a pillar of support, lifting me up through the highs and anchoring me through the lows. Knowing I have a community this loyal makes me incredibly grateful. Beyond the professional guidance and shared ambitions, it’s the quiet moments that stick with me the most: the late night study grinds, the endless laughing over inside jokes, and the spontaneous food runs. Those are the moments where I realize I’m more than part of an organization, but a second family.”

“Growing up, I never had sisters, so I always wondered what it would be like to have that kind of bond. Joining Kappas gave me exactly that and so much more. From birthday surprises that made me feel so loved, to studying together until 4 a.m., sleepovers, spontaneous trips, and all the little moments in between, Kappas has given me a group of women who feel like family. Through every high and low, I’ve always had sisters by my side offering support, sharing advice, and making every moment a little brighter. The friendships I’ve built here have become some of the most meaningful relationships in my life, and they’ve truly made Northeastern feel like home.”

SERVICE

“Joining Kappas has helped me pursue my passion for community service. I’ve always wanted to be able to have the opportunity to give back to my community, and now I’m able to do just that, surrounded by people who are fueled with that same kind of passion. Being able to hold this leadership position has helped me take more initiative and collaborate with a multitude of different groups! I’m glad to have been given this amazing opportunity to volunteer and help my community. Joining kappas has helped me discover more about the opportunities available, including this one!”

Community Service Chair | Alpha Upsilon | Spring 2026

“I’ve always been passionate about community service and coming into college i wanted to find a group that would allow me to continue to give back to the community. joining kappas helped me to discover many causes and organizations nearby as cs is one of our three pillars. it also opened up leadership opportunities where i was able to be co community service and plan various events for sisters to participate in. some memorable ones include partnering with the gift of life organization for swabbing tabling event and volunteering at the annual local 5k walk/run for suicide prevention. I’m excited to be part of a group that collectively comes together to give back to the community!”

CULTURAL DIVERSITY

“Being co-cultural chair for Kappas has given me the opportunity to embrace and share my culture in a really meaningful way. My culture is something I’ve always been really proud of, but it’s not something I see represented very often, which is why this position has meant so much to me. Through this role, I’ve been able to learn from sisters with so many different backgrounds while also working with other cultural organizations on campus. These experiences have allowed me to connect with different communities and gain appreciation for cultures beyond my own. Being surrounded by people with so many different experiences and perspectives has made this role incredibly rewarding, and I’m grateful to be part of an organization that genuinely values diversity and encourages everyone to celebrate who they are.”

“I’ve always been passionate about Asian American representation, and wanting to continue my involvement at Northeastern, Kappas has created such a great environment to embrace my own culture and learn about others. I think all the sisters foster such an inclusive community where I don’t feel afraid to embrace my cultural identity. Kappas offers many opportunities to share your experiences and bond with your peers through various events and collaborations. As the incoming co-cultural chair, I’m excited to be able to give back to Kappas and help create more opportunities for people to learn about Pan-Asian culture both within our organization and across campus.”
