AAL Community Development, Inc.

Alpha Alpha Lambda Chapter, also known as the Newark Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. was founded in 1926. One of the original 14 members who chartered the chapter, well known for his work in the Newark community, was William Ashby, who also was instrumental in the founding of the Urban League of Essex County and the United Way of Essex West Hudson. Alpha Alpha Lambda chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. has been providing community services in and around Newark for 93 years.

Our vision is to build a community center that connects with and serves the needs of Newark residents through fostering community partnerships with other community-based non-profit programs as well as corporate social responsibility initiatives around the city.
