Metro Atlanta Chapters of Phi Beta Sigma
Fraternity Inc. and Zeta Phi Beta Sorority Inc. celebrated a joint Founders' Day
with a brunch at 10 a.m. on Saturday Jan. 26, 2013 at the Emory
Conference Center Hotel, 1615 Clifton Road in Atlanta. The Honorable Brother
Carter D. Womack, 27th & 29th International President of Phi Beta Sigma was
the guest speaker. The theme for the occasion is "Carrying the Torch of
Brotherhood and Sisterhood."Passing the torch along to those the come
after to be developed, promising, and responsible ‘servant leaders’ continues
to be prevalent among the members of the fraternity and the sorority.
The organizations are unique historically because
they are constitutionally bound. Through this
joint observance of Founders Day, the two groups continue to demonstrate the
sisterly and brotherly love that embrace a genuine and deep regard for the
well-being and success of others. The program's focus was “Passing the Torch,” that will inspire continuous positive actions
in the community that foster the ideals of service, charity, scholarship, cultural activities and promote legislation for social and
civic change.
