PHI BETA SIGMA FRATERNITY, INCORPORATED
Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. developed the Education program from its traditional emphasis on academic achievement as an ingredient for success. During the 1945 Conclave in St. Louis, Missouri, the Fraternity restructured its programming, leading to the birth of education as an International program. The program focuses on providing a variety of services to alumni and collegiate members of the Fraternity, which in turn benefit local communities. In-house programs include scholarships, conferences, college fairs, mentoring, and tutoring at local, regional, and national levels.
The scholarship component is designed to expand Sigma's impact by assisting with the cost of education at both the high school and college levels through scholarship awards. Chapters are tasked with raising money in various ways, as per the chapter's decision, to award these scholarships. The local scholarships will be awarded to high school and/or college students using criteria set by the chapter. It is requested that Alumni Chapters target high school seniors and college students, and Collegiate Chapters target middle school and high school students.
