The many DOP Sisters in attendance with their AHEPA family members proudly honored the accomplishments and vision of their founder Alexandra Apostolides, who in 1929 put forth her dream of empowering and helping women form a sisterhood for success. They all look forward to celebrating their centennial in seven years along with their Ahepan brothers who celebrate this year AHEPA’s 100th anniversary. The proceeds from the event will go to sponsoring local and national DOP projects.
