Our Roots
Pi Beta Phi’s founding chapter, originally known as I.C. Sorosis, was created on April 28, 1867, when 12 young women came together with a shared vision for sisterhood. They gathered in the southwest second floor bedroom of Holt House and committed to building a community of friendship, leadership and shared values. I.C. Sorosis grew despite opposition from college authorities, however, at the 1884 Convention, the chapter relinquished its charter.In 1928, Illinois Epsilon Amy Burnham Onken reinstalled the chapter, and five of the six living founders attended. Installation activities included ceremonies, banquets, a luncheon and a formal dinner with several Panhellenic organizations and Pi Phi alumnae in attendance.

Supporting Sisters’ Dreams
Chapter-specific scholarship funds support collegiate chapter members as they pursue their academic dreams and professional goals. By giving to a scholarship fund, donors can directly impact their own chapter sisters and open doors that might not have been possible otherwise.
When you're with her, you’re home
Pi Phi chapter facilities are where friendships take root, leaders find their voice and sisterhood shines across generations. From memories made over shared meals to the built-in support from late-night study sessions and knowing your sisters are there in both the big and small moments, living in a chapter facility creates a sense of home and belonging within every wall.
