A Message from the President
Greetings!
Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. is an organization founded on January 9, 1914. Three young African American males desired to create an organization that would “become the leading proactive community service organization focusing on issues and strategies that positively impact young males and their communities.” The Fraternity was built upon the three principles of brotherhood, scholarship and service.
Today, 108 years later, the brothers of the Delta Sigma Chapter in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, continue to uphold those principles. We recognize and celebrate that for 99 of those 108 years, our chapter has been working to make a difference in the Winston-Salem area. We honor our five charter members and thank them for laying the foundation on which we continue to build. With this ever in mind, we continue to strive to be role models and have a positive impact on the lives of those in our communities, our peers, and future generations of young men.
This is accomplished through our partnerships with community organizations such as the March of Dimes, Big Brothers, Big Sisters, Second Harvest Food Bank, and the American Cancer Society. We also work with a diverse group of young men, ages 8 to 18, who are members of our Sigma Beta Club, a youth mentoring program. We recognize that the task put before us by our honorable founders is not an easy one, but we are determined to uphold the motto “culture for service and service for humanity.”
As we quickly approach December 10, 2023, our chapter centennial, we invite you to join us in our moments of celebration as well as in our continued efforts to be changemakers in the fields of Education, Bigger and Better Business, and Social Action. We have a plethora of programs, events, and service opportunities scheduled throughout the upcoming months to memorialize this historic milestone. I invite you to continue to visit our website and social media pages for more information and to join us as we MARCH TO CENTENNIAL 2023!
