ABOUT

The Kappa Pi Beta Fraternity is an Asian American-founded service and social fraternity dedicated to the needs of the community alongside a commitment of higher learning, the promotion of the traditional Asian values of respect and discipline, and the overall essence of unity among all people of different background.

Philanthropy - Type II Diabetes

Asian Americans are generally not seen as overweight compared to the rest of the U.S. population. However, they are actually at a greater risk of developing diabetes, as Asian Americans often develop diabetes at a lower BMI. Furthermore, Asian Americans have the highest proportion of undiagnosed diabetes among all ethnic and racial groups (at 51 percent). Currently, 60% of the world diabetic population is Asian. Our Fraternity seeks to actively educate and work with the American Diabetes Association, through volunteering and fundraising, to build awareness and combat this growing concern among our community.

Leadership

Our fraternity believes in leadership growth and will provide each chapter with semesterly stipends, intended solely for the use of conference registration for two or more members, to any “leadership” or “cultural” conference [Ex: Midwest Asian American Student Union (MAASU), Association of Fraternal Leadership and Values (AFLV), North American Interfraternity Conference (NIC), Filipino Americans Coming Together (FACT), Vietnamese Interacting as One (VIA-1)].

Academic Excellence

Majority of our members graduate through the different resources and support the brothers give ourselves.
