SAVE THE DATE FOR FOUNDERS' DAY AND PI PHI GIVING DAY

As a premier organization for women, we’ve uplifted and empowered our sisters since April 28, 1867. In celebration of our 12 founders and the sisterhood they established, we invite you to join members and friends around the world for Pi Phi Giving Day on Friday, April 28, 2023. Giving on Pi Phi Giving Day, or any day, is a tangible way to represent the values at the heart of our sisterhood and ensure future generations benefit from the support of Sincere Friends.

After April 1, visit piphigivingday.org to give back to Pi Beta Phi Foundation with a gift—then invite sisters in your chapter, alumnae club and social networks to join you! Add to the online celebration by sharing your favorite Pi Phi photos, memories and sisterhood stories on social media using #PiPhiGivingDay.

SHARE YOUR STORY

Every Pi Phi has a story to share. Whether it be a personal journey, a change of course in your career or a friendship close to your heart, we want to hear from you. We’re looking for member stories of sisterhood, leadership, philanthropy and mentoring—all things rooted in Pi Phi values. Sharing the experiences that make us who we are is what connects us as sisters and as strong women. Tell us about yourself or a sister you know at pibetaphi.org/stories and help us tell stories that inspire us all.
