“A Voteless People is a Hopeless People” (aka VPHP) was initiated as a National Program of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. during the 1930’s when many African-American had the right to vote but were prevented from voting because of poll taxes, threats of reprisal, and lack of education about the voting process. Voter education and registration have remained a dominant focus of this outreach activity for over 65 years. In the 1900’s, the focus shifted to include political awareness and empowerment, delivered most frequently through town meetings and candidate forums.

The Jewels Heritage Project, Inc.

JHP intends to accomplish its mission in two phases. Phase I: JHP will acquire the original site where Mr. and Mrs. Archie Singleton’s residence at 411 East State Street, Ithaca, New York, once stood. We will then build a monument park that will replicate the original façade of the former residence and provide a place where the local community service projects can take place.
