BROTHERS IN ACTION: NBAC SUPPORTS FOOD BANK INITIATIVE AT CATERPILLAR SEGUIN PLANT

Story by Bro. Edward S Jones,
NBAC Keeper of Records

This holiday season, as communities across Texas face rising costs and increased need, the New Braunfels (TX) Alumni Chapter (NBAC) of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. continues to demonstrate what steadfast and intentional service looks like. On Saturday, December 6, 2025, NBAC members volunteered at a major distribution event hosted at the Caterpillar plant in Seguin, Texas, an initiative coordinated to support the New Braunfels Food Bank’s expanded outreach across the region.

The large-scale effort transformed the Caterpillar facility into a powerful hub of service and impact. Vehicles wound through the plant grounds as families, seniors, and individuals awaited essential food assistance for the holiday season. Working shoulder to shoulder with Food Bank staff and industry volunteers, NBAC brothers loaded boxes, directed traffic, organized supplies, and offered encouragement to those experiencing hardship.

What has become a monthly tradition for NBAC is far more than a routine service project. It is a symbol of unity, purpose, and a commitment to ensuring that no family faces hunger alone, especially when times are tough.

“The need intensifies during the holidays, but so does our responsibility,” said Bro. Kirk A Reed, NBAC Polemarch. “Supporting this Caterpillar and Food Bank initiative shows the impact we can make when corporations, nonprofits, and community organizations stand together.”

The New Braunfels Food Bank, part of the San Antonio Food Bank network, continues to see elevated demand throughout the winter months. By hosting distribution events at major community sites like the Caterpillar plant, the Food Bank expands its capacity to reach underserved areas throughout Guadalupe County.

NBAC’s consistent involvement is deeply rooted in Kappa Alpha Psi’s commitment to achievement and community engagement. For the brothers, service is not an event. It is a lifestyle anchored in compassion and responsibility.

“Our presence is more than volunteer hours,” Reed added. “It represents our dedication to uplifting and strengthening the very communities that support us.”

As the holiday season continues, NBAC encourages residents to support Food Bank efforts through donations, volunteering, and community partnership. When organizations unite for a common good, transformational impact follows, and NBAC remains proud to play its part.

New Braunfels Alumni Chapter Celebrates Service, Leadership, and Brotherhood at November Meeting

NEW BRAUNFELS — (November 15, 2025) — The New Braunfels (TX) Alumni Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc., convened Saturday for its regularly scheduled November Chapter meeting, where brothers gathered to conduct standard fraternal business with their characteristic professionalism, discipline, and unity. After all official business concluded, the chapter transitioned into its annual awards presentation, a moment defined by heartfelt appreciation and recognition of members who exemplified excellence throughout the fraternal year.

Chapter Polemarch Kirk A. Reed, accompanied by Vice Polemarch Dr. Sean Seay, led the ceremony, emphasizing that each honoree represented the very best of NBAC’s spirit of service, leadership, and brotherhood.

The first award presented was the MVAC Award, given to Bro. Brian K. Guillory for his impactful work as Reclamation Chair and for his continued dedication to Active-Duty personnel and veterans. Guillory, who retired last month in Louisiana, expressed deep gratitude for the brotherhood’s support. “I truly appreciate this recognition,” Guillory said. “What means even more is the support the chapter showed during my retirement weekend. That meant the world to me. Thank you, brothers, for always being there and for trusting me with the work I do for our chapter.”

Next, Bro. Edward S. Jones was honored for two major achievements. Reed first presented Jones with his Certificate of Completion from the National Alliance on Mental Illness, officially naming him a NAMI Wellness Champion after more than twelve hours of mental health training. The certification reflects NBAC’s growing commitment to supporting mental wellness throughout Central and South Texas.

Jones then received the Polemarch’s Award for his leadership and his part in elevating NBAC’s branding, his work as Fundraising Chair, and his unwavering dedication to the fraternity and the surrounding community. Jones thanked the members for their confidence in him and shared words that resonated deeply in the room. “I am just here to work,” Jones said. “It is about our diamond, so anything we can do to polish it, that is what I am here to do. Thank you, brothers, for believing in me and allowing me to serve.”

The final and most distinguished honor of the afternoon, Brother of the Year, was awarded to Cpt. Marc A. Granville. Known affectionately as the “International Nupe,” Granville has earned admiration across the Fraternity for his willingness to travel extensively in support of Kappa Alpha Psi events, as well as the initiatives of Greek and non-Greek organizations alike.

During the presentation, Reed spoke fondly of Granville’s consistency, professionalism, and boundless energy, joking about Granville’s frequent catchphrase, “You got this QR code?” Reed also shared that he believes Granville is destined for higher fraternal leadership. “It would not surprise me to one day see Brother Granville as Province Polemarch, or even Grand Polemarch,” Reed said. “Nobody can tell you that you have not done your best, because your best has not been done yet. You have even more greatness to come.”

Granville, visibly moved, offered heartfelt remarks to the chapter. “I would not be here without y’all,” Granville said. “You are a reflection of who you surround yourself with. I am literally taking what everybody is pouring into me. I am a product of y’all, and thank you for the words of encouragement, wisdom, and advice. I just want to help and continue pursuing making this the best chapter in all of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. Thank you for the opportunity, and I just want to be part of the team.”

As the ceremony concluded, Reed encouraged all brothers to participate in the upcoming award nomination period and reminded them to submit names of deserving members to the Awards Committee. He also applauded the chapter’s readiness for its upcoming community service initiatives, expressing pride in the collective dedication that defines NBAC.

The November meeting reinforced the chapter’s enduring commitment to excellence in fraternal business, community engagement, and leadership development. The New Braunfels Alumni Chapter continues to stand as a model of achievement and brotherhood across Central and South Texas.
