Polemarch
Brother Aristide (Ari) C. Joffrion serves as the 2nd Polemarch of the Grovetown–Evans–Martinez GA Alumni Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. His vision and leadership were instrumental in the chapter's chartering on December 17, 2023, and in establishing the GEM Chapter as "The Jewel of the Southeastern Province."
Under his leadership, the chapter has launched the Kappa Scholarship Endowment Fund (KSEF), expanded the Kappa League mentorship program, and built lasting partnerships throughout the Columbia County corridor — serving the communities of Grovetown, Evans, and Martinez.
Brother Joffrion remains committed to the fraternity's founding principle of achievement in every field of human endeavor, leading the chapter with integrity, purpose, and an unwavering dedication to service.
