Purpose
Under the postulates of Health, Science and Charity the Professional Society Alfa Kappa Pi has inflamed the hearts of students and professionals anxious to serve and eager for knowledge. AKP born from the restlessness of young medicine students worried about integration about the social welfare and medical science in a society where the disinterestedness by the other people's well-being is the rule. This restlessness took to the founders to organize themselves and to outline a plan of work focused in the professional growth and the social welfare of the community where we lived.
