We do not discriminate on the basis of race. We maintained loyalty and unity, while we strive for patience, perseverance and pride. The organization was registered with the SECURITIES and EXCHANGE COMMISSION as non-profit and non-dividend Corporation with the name of ALPHA KAPPA RHO BROTHERHOOD ORGANIZATION, INC. dated February 26, 1994 at the P.U.P. main office of ALPHA KAPPA RHO-NCR.

Its has been almost 5 years since I've joined Alpha Kappa Rho(
A K P)
Skeptron International Humanitarian Service Fraternity and Sorority(RHO DELTA,Cebu City Chapter).
I could still remember my hardships and trials during my neophyte days. The taste of my sweat mixed with tears while running down my face during my final initiation rites and Seniority rites. After passing all the tests, I can still remember my A K P brothers when they welcomed me as their newly A K P brother, their applauds while shaking their hands with the fraternity handshake and especially the pain of getting the mark of a true SKEPTRON "THE AKP's BURNING SUN" which made me a proud full pledge ALPHA KAPPA RHO Skeptron member.
