From the outside, Alfred University may not look like much but within this small town, we have the ability to do great things. Alpha Phi Omega | Epsilon Gamma was established in 1947 and has had a long tradition of community service in this and the surrounding areas.
One way we are able to keep on this tradition is through new members, which are gained by the pledge process. Pledges are our hope for the future. They will become the leaders, our friends, and serve those around them just as the founding members of our chapter hoped in 1947.
With them, we can help fight hunger (Angel Food Ministries), give our time at the local animal shelter (Hornell Humane Society), volunteer at blood drives (American Red Cross), build a house for those that would never own one without us (Habitat for Humanity), and take a moment out of our busy lives to clean up what others have carelessly left behind (Adopt-a-Highway).
We are capable of more than we realize. Within each of us lies endless possibilies of greatness, and together, we can help save the world.
If you are not a member, please consider joining us for our Pledge Ceremony tomorrow at 5:30pm in the Kenyon/Allen/Davis Room, Powell Campus Center.
Be a Leader, Be a Friend, Be of Service… Today and Everyday.

This Saturday, Epsilon Gamma is offering our services to the Hornell Area Humane Society Animal Shelter. First done as a pledge class service project in the spring, we hope to once again help out by walking dogs, cleaning kennels, and taking the cats out of their cages for some much needed love.
To better serve the shelter, two groups will be going at different times. If you’re more of a morning person, go with Group 1: 10am – 1pm. If you’d rather sleep in, go with Group 2: 12pm – 3pm. Just let us know by emailing alphaphi@alfred.edu.
For more information about the shelter, visit http://www.hornellanimalshelter.org/
As always, we’re here to serve
