We, as members of the Gamma Phi Beta Sorority, are beyond proud of our rich and well accomplished history. During an era when women were discouraged to attend college, our four bold and courageous founders once friends came together to form the first women's society. Through the hardships and the adversity they battled, the four women succeeded by creating one of the ten oldest women led organization. Now, more than 140 years later, we celebrate the vision and dedication of those women whom the word "sorority" was first coined- and all who have come since. 

Gamma Phi Beta was founded on November 11, 1874, at Syracuse University in New York by four inspirational women; Helen M. Dodge, Frances E. Haven, E. Adeline Curtis and Mary A. Bingham. Our four founders joined together with courage and built what is now one of the largest and well respected sororities in North America. The sorority has chartered 187 collegiate chapters across the United States and Canada, and has more than 200,000 collegiate and alumnae members worldwide with the headquarters located in Centennial, Colorado.
