Who is Phi Beta Psi?

Phi Beta Psi sorority is a national organization which was founded in Columbus, OH. It is not affiliated in any way with a college or university, but is a civic organization started by six young women with a vision. Members of the first chapter, Alpha, held their meetings at their school, which allotted a page in the school paper for sorority news. The original group was incorporated in the state of Ohio on the 15th day of February in 1904 as PHI BETA PSI.

Our purpose

The goal of Phi Beta Psi is to grow together in friendship and charity - spreading the word about our mission. With 62 chapters across the country and over 1100 active members, we are continuing to grow and build a network of like-minded women.  Phi Beta Psi Sorority believes in diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility. Phi Beta Psi stands together at the forefront as warriors for cancer research with courageous leadership, intentional growth, and continued service. Over the years, Phi Beta Psi has raised $11,000,000+ to our national project, cancer research, and we aren’t stopping there!

Whether you’re looking for a place to fit in and give back to your community or you have a personal reason for wanting to join the fight against cancer, Phi Beta Psi offers you a place to find your purpose. Join us in Phi Bete love, friendship and truth.
