West Georgia

The gentlemen of the Zeta Kappa Chapter of Kappa Alpha Order at the University of West Georgia are joining their fellow brothers from two other universities, in an effort to raise money to purchase an all terrain wheelchair to support the life of a wounded veteran. Our chapter is responsible for $3,000 of the fund and have currently raised $1,070.01. We still need just under $2,000 and our deadline is the last day in February!

This chair, while expensive, provides a wounded veteran of our community with a life changing opportunity to be able to do the things he/she used to be able to do but no longer is able to. It will help them reclaim the lifestyle and mobility they lost defending our great nation.
