Zeta Phi Beta
Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated was founded on January 16, 1920, at Howard University in Washington, D.C., by five visionary women—Arizona Cleaver Stemons, Pearl Anna Neal, Myrtle Tyler Faithful, Viola Tyler Goings, and Fannie Pettie Watts—known as our Five Pearls. Rooted in the principles of Scholarship, Service, Sisterhood, and Finer Womanhood, Zeta was created to address pressing social issues and uplift communities.
Over the last century, Zeta has grown to more than 125,000 members worldwide, establishing hundreds of chapters and breaking barriers as the first NPHC sorority to charter a chapter in Africa, form auxiliary groups, and be constitutionally bound to a fraternity (Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc.). Today, Zeta continues its legacy of leadership, academic excellence, and community impact through service, education, and advocacy.
