The National Panhellenic Conference Creed

We, as Fraternity Women, stand for service through the development of character inspired by the close contact and deep friendship of individual fraternity and Panhellenic life. The opportunity for wide and wise human service, through mutual respect and helpfulness, is the tenet by which we strive to live. 

The Purpose of Alumnae Panhellenics

  • To INFORM fraternity women of current trends

  • To PROMOTE the fraternity system

  • To IMPROVE the panhellenic image

  • To STIMULATE a continuing interest in panhellenic affairs

Alumnae Panhellenic Associations (APHs) enhance the fraternity system through scholarship awards, annual educational informational functions for prospective college freshman, philanthropic projects, community participation and civic leadership. Last year, over $435,000 was raised and granted in scholarships by APHs to over 580 women. If located in a college community, an APH can give valuable support to a College Panhellenic.
