Supporting College-Bound Scholars

We offer several awards designed to support students as they transition into higher education:

• The Allia Watts Scholarship Fund honors a commitment to service by supporting college-bound seniors who have at least one parent that is a disabled veteran (10% disability rating or greater). It is a $1,000 award that recognizes students who embody honor, courage, and commitment.
• The Ben Abney Scholarship is dedicated to students in the DMV area who are preparing to attend a Historically Black College or University (HBCU). This $1,000 award recognizes students with a 3.0 GPA or higher who are eager to use their education to shape the future.
• The Dr. John Morton Emerging Leader Scholarship recognizes high-achieving seniors in Northern Virginia who have demonstrated exceptional leadership during their high school careers. This $500 award supports students with at least a 3.2 GPA who are headed to an accredited four-year HBCU.

Recognizing Youth Leadership & Creativity

We are also dedicated to fostering the development of our younger students through programs that celebrate initiative, character, and the arts:

• The Seeju M. Dupre Kappa League Youth Scholarship celebrates young men in grades 6–12 who have a deep passion for the arts. Whether you are a creator or an admirer, this $500 award supports students with a 2.5 GPA who are committed to using their talents to make a difference in their communities.
• The Alexander Moore Legacy Scholarship is a $500 award for graduating Kappa League seniors. We are looking for students who have shown significant personal growth, leadership, and a commitment to becoming their best selves throughout their time in the Kappa League.
• The Reginald Moore Legacy Scholarship encourages our younger Kappa Leaguers (grades 6–11) to continue their journey of excellence. This $500 award honors students who demonstrate perseverance, leadership, and a commitment to remaining active in the Kappa League.
