Sophia Yen, an alumna from the University of California, Berkeley, initiated the process of establishing the National Alumnae Board (NAB) with the vision of continuing sisterhood after graduation. In 2015, the National Alumnae Association (NAA) renamed its scholarship the Sophia Yen Scholarship Award. With the recent reorganization of the International Leadership Board, The aKDPhi Foundation inherited this scholarship initiative in 2021.
The Sophia Yen Scholarship will award one Active and one Alumna each with a scholarship of up to $1,000 based on eligibility requirements, merit, and need, determined by the Scholarship Selection Board.
