Our Roots

A local group of women, Kappa Phi, was formed in 1982 and officially became the New York Epsilon Chapter in 1984 after installation by past Grand President Jean Wirths Scott, Pennsylvania Beta. The Initiation Ceremony took place at the First United Presbyterian Church of Troy, and the installation banquet was held at the Russell Sage Dining Hall on campus.

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.

Building Leaders Who Shine

Chapter Leadership Education Expendable (CLEE) funds directly empower our sisters’ leadership journeys, helping eliminate financial barriers to leadership development opportunities for both chapter leaders and individual members. Giving to a CLEE fund allows donors to support the chapters they love while lighting the way for future leaders.
