In the Spring of 2000, Maves Ranola and Rizcion Dagani ambitiously worked to establish an Asian-American Interest Sorority on the campus of The Florida State University. They felt that FSU, with its growing Asian population, needed an organization that promoted leadership, timeless sisterhood, community service and Asian awareness.

The first step was to establish P.A.A.W.S. - An Asian-American Women's Organization. As P.A.A.W.S. this group of determined women, under the guidance of their beloved Momma Maves, set a foundation that promoted Asian awareness on campus and in the Tallahassee community. In the Fall of 2000, P.A.A.W.S. was recognized by the Multicultural Council of Greek Organizations at The Florida State University.

On February 19, 2001, eleven women - Rizcion Dagani, Diane Dossa, Ruby Estoy, Clarissa Ignacio, Chantal Lie, Gillian Lie, Diana Nguyen, Cynthia Samar, Jessica Shultz, Victoria VanWycke and Leslie Zabala - became the FSU aKDF Charter Class. On April 21, 2001, FSU became the newest aKDF colony - the thirtieth chapter of alpha Kappa Delta Phi National Sorority, Inc. Each of the young women pledged to work hard to break stereotypes, build bonds with other Greek organizations, and to pass on the teachings and values of the sorority.
