About the chapter

Gamma Phi Beta is a sisterhood dedicated to building strong girls and empowering women through lifelong friendships, leadership opportunities, and meaningful service. Our chapter is grounded in love, labor, learning, and loyalty, values that guide everything we do. We’re proud to create a supportive and inspiring space where every member can grow, lead, and thrive.

“Gamma Phi Beta has truly become the home away from home I never knew I needed. From the moment I joined, I was surrounded by women who not only love fiercely but who inspire me every single day with their drive, ambition, and kindness. Being a part of this chapter has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life!”
Jillian Mayer, 2025 Chapter President
