Today
we’re
celebrating
the
Finer
Women
of

Zeta
Phi
Beta
Sorority,
Inc.
who’ve
showed
up
and
showed
out
for
104
years
of
scholarship,
service,
sisterhood
and
finer
womanhood.

In
1920,
five
coeds
founded
the
sorority
on
the
campus
of
Howard
University
in
a
historic
moment
that
affected
positive
change,
raised
the
consciousness
of
their
people,
encouraged
the
highest
standards
of
scholastic
achievement,
and
fostered
a
greater
sense
of
unity
among
its
members.

These
women
believed
that
sorority
elitism
and
socializing
overshadowed
the
real
mission
for
progressive
organizations
while
failing
to
address
fully
the
societal
mores,
ills,
prejudices,
and
poverty
affecting
humanity
in
general
and
the
Black
community
in
particular.

Since
its
inception,
Zeta
Phi
Beta
has
steadily
ascended
into
the
national
spotlight
with
programs
demonstrating
concern
for
the
human
condition
both
nationally
and
internationally.

With
hundreds
of
chapters
worldwide
and
a
membership
of
over
100,000,
the
organization
made
history
as
the
first
National
Pan-Hellenic
Council
organization
to
centralize
its
operations
in
a
national
headquarters,
first
to
charter
a
chapter
in
Africa,
first
to
form
auxiliary
groups,
and
first
to
be
constitutionally
bound
to
a
fraternity,

Phi
Beta
Sigma
Fraternity,
Inc.

The
sorority
takes
pride
in
transforming
communities
through
volunteer
services
from
members
and
its
auxiliaries
via
outreach
services
and
support
of
multiple
affiliate
organizations.

Notable
members
of
the
storied
organization
include

Zora
Neale
Hurston,

Chaka
Khan,

Dionne
Warwick,

Vivica
A.
Fox, Sheryl
Underwood,

Towanda
Braxton,

Chrisette
Michelle,

Gwendolyn
Brooks,

Syleena
Johnson,

Sarah
Vaughn,

Anita
Hill,

Esther
Rolle and
more.
