For Alpha Kappa Alpha members, the pearl holds specific cultural significance — making alpha kappa alpha pearl pins a preferred choice for initiation, formal recognition, and legacy gifting rather than everyday chapter wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Can I order aka pearl pins in different sizes for the same chapter event?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes. Many chapters order multiple sizes within a single run — for example, 1.25\" for standard line gifts and 1.75\" or 2\" for officer or aka life membership pin presentations. Each size receives its own design proof for approval. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What is the difference between a silver soror and golden soror pin?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: These mark distinct service milestones within the sorority. Aka silver soror pins recognize 25 years of membership, while the aka golden soror pin — or aka golden soror pins for bulk chapter orders — commemorates 50 years. Both are typically larger in size (1.75\" or 2\") and presented in a velvet or presentation box. If you're ordering for a chapter anniversary event, note the milestone year at checkout so we can factor it into the design proof.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What is the difference between an aka life membership pin and a standard membership pin?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: An aka life membership pin is commissioned for members who have achieved lifetime standing within the organization — distinct from the alpha kappa alpha membership pin issued at initiation. Life membership pieces typically feature additional design elements or premium finishes to reflect the distinction. Both can be fully customized; specify which milestone you're ordering for when you upload your artwork.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"yearpins","offers":[{"title":"1\"（25.4mm)","offer_id":43763135938638,"sku":"CP031V01","price":3.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1.25\"(31.8mm)","offer_id":43763135971406,"sku":"CP031V02","price":3.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1.5\"(38.1mm)  Popular","offer_id":43763136004174,"sku":"CP031V03","price":3.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1.75\" (44.5mm)  Popular","offer_id":43763136036942,"sku":"CP031V04","price":4.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2\"(50.8mm) More details","offer_id":43763136069710,"sku":"CP031V05","price":4.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0277\/1520\/7246\/files\/CP031_AKA_pins_pearl.jpg?v=1781683092","url":"https:\/\/yearpins.com\/es\/products\/alpha-kappa-alpha-pearl-pin","provider":"yearpins","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
