When it comes to reaching communities in meaningful ways, few organizations have the reach, credibility, and commitment of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. Founded in 1906, this historic fraternity has spent more than a century building brotherhood, academic excellence, and service into every chapter. Today, its network spans over 730 chapters worldwide, with members that include physicians, educators, engineers, faith leaders, civil rights advocates, and entrepreneurs—all deeply connected to the communities they serve. Each and every one of them represents what it means to be a Trustmaker.
With the support of Inside Edge, Alpha Phi Alpha members have brought health education directly into their communities. In cities like Atlanta, Charlotte, Chicago, and Philadelphia—and even in rural and suburban areas—Trustmakers from Alpha Phi Alpha are out in the community every day, talking to people. They share health and wellness information, provide materials on diseases, clinical trials, and therapies that we co-created, and bring new perspectives back to the Inside Edge team and the medical innovators we partner with. The trusted voices and visible dedication of Alpha Phi Alpha make sure important information reaches the people who need it most.
This partnership is a living example of collaboration in action: knowledge meets trust, and trust creates impact. Together, we are helping communities of color gain better access to opportunities that improve health outcomes and have a stronger voice in shaping the future of medicine. Inside Edge is proud to partner with Alpha Phi Alpha as part of our Trustmaker Network. Their reach, dedication, and commitment to their communities make this work possible.
