About the LKS Alumni Association
The Lambda Kappa Sigma Alumni Association (LKSAA) was established in 2023 and launched in 2024 to create a stronger, more connected alumni community. Previously, alumni chapters were tied to collegiate chapters, but many members who moved away found it difficult to stay engaged. The LKSAA unites all alumni under one national association, offering tailored programming, nationally led events/programs, and resources that meet the evolving needs of our sisters—wherever they may be. This new structure ensures every member feels valued, supported, and connected to the enduring legacy of Lambda Kappa Sigma. All we are missing is YOU!
Open to All Ages and Career Stages
Whether you’re a graduating student, a new practitioner, an experienced pharmacist, or a retired member of the profession, the Lambda Kappa Sigma Alumni Initiate Program is designed to meet your unique needs. With dedicated engagement chairs for every stage of your career, we prioritize maximizing the benefits of membership for all. From tailored programming and services to meaningful opportunities and a supportive community, the LKSAA ensures there’s something for everyone to enjoy and grow within our sisterhood.
Member Benefits
Through the Lambda Kappa Sigma Alumni Association, you’ll connect with women pharmacists from across the U.S. and Canada, building a community of like-minded, supportive professionals. From our exclusive Facebook group with lively discussions, newsletters, and social events to professional development opportunities like a free CE Impact subscription (valued at over $100), there are countless ways to engage and grow. Join book clubs, hobby groups, or motivational networks to share interests, or step into leadership by applying for roles within the Fraternity and LKSAA. Together, we create a network that inspires, uplifts, and strengthens the next generation of women in pharmacy.
