Membership into Phi Beta Sigma has its privileges! The Founders envisioned an organization built on the principles, integrity, and most of all service. Through brotherhood, scholarship and service Phi Beta Sigma has impacted not only the local communities that we live in but also the world as a whole. Phi Beta Sigma has become a training ground for world, business, and community leaders. Our success is based on the depth of commitment, vision, and confidence of our members.
