The Beta Chapter of Alpha Psi Rho was officially established on September 1st, 2003 at California State University, Northridge. The 5 Charters brhos helped bring this fraternity to campus being the first Asian-Interest Fraternity. Since then our chapter continues to grow and mold future gentlemen by emulating our pillars Brhotherhood, Academics, Prosperity, and Strength.



Asian and Pacific Islander Americans were struggling to find their identities in American society. While some found prosperity in gangs, others pursued higher education becoming capable gentlemen in the community. The Founding Fathers at San Diego State University became involved in cultural organizations, however, they wanted to be around people who have similar interests, living a similar lifestyle, and interested in making greater impacts in the community—a sense of involvement that never existed and a brhotherhood like no other. In 2000, the ten founding fathers founded Alpha Psi Rho at San Diego State University:



Jason Valoroso

 Kenny Fong
James Kuniyoshi
Jeremy Quirante
Jay Balanay
Kenny Ortega
Ryan Lucina
Reuel Andaya

Anthony Gambol
Benjamin Abiva



Dedicated to building "high-caliber men", Alpha Psi Rho is very involved in its communities: the cultural community, the community in which it lives in, and the Greek community. Alpha Psi Rho is involved yearly in cultural festivals, activist marches, and fundraiser walks. Day-to-day, members participate with supporting community youth organizations, other collegiate organizations, and organizing community events. Alpha Psi Rho thrives by following its mission statement, the mantra of "Always Be Bold And Strong ΑΒΒΑΣ," and its four pillars of Brhotherhood, Academics, Prosperity and Strength.
