History of
Katy-Fulshear Chapter

A vision made clear

On a humid-filled day in Katy, TX four like-minded Kappamen established a closer bond amongst brothers and would often gather in fellowship. These men were all residents in the Katy/Richmond area and lived in close proximity to each other. The day of the week was a Sunday the date was June 20, 2020, when Brother Carlos Blocker, Brother Lloyd Wills, Brother Michael Clark, and Brother Fred McCoy met at the home of Brother Wills.

The brothers often discussed various subject matters, but on this day, they were endowed with the spirit of “The Dreamer” Elder Watson Diggs. The idea was born regarding the need for a Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. in the Katy area. Within the ensuing eighteen months there was at final count fifty-three men of honor who committed themselves to the development of the Katy-Fulshear (TX) Alumni Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi, Inc. These brothers, being residents of the area, knew there was a deficit of positive African American influence in the general community, especially in the young African American school-aged diaspora. These Kappamen worked diligently throughout the area establishing themselves by providing continuous community service programs to assist others from Katy, TX to the Island of Haiti.

On January 19, 2022, Vice-Polemarch Brother Fred McCoy called an emergency meeting to inform all of these Kappamen about the approval in establishing an Alumni chapter from the Grand Board (Sr. Grand Polemarch-Reuben A. Shelton III, Esq.) and the Southwest Province (SW Polemarch-William A. Puder) of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. It was established on the day of Sunday, March 6, 2022, the hour being 2:11 pm at the Harris County MUD No. 81 Office in Katy TX that fifty-three charter members and officers were to be sworn in officially to the founding of the Katy-Fulshear (TX) Alumni Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi, Inc.
