Sigma Beta Club
Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. continues to lead all Greek
organizations in programs that bring about social change. In 1950 Phi
Beta Sigma Fraternity became the first Greek organization to develop
a youth auxiliary group. Under the direction of Dr. Parlette L. Moore
the Sigma Beta Club was founded. Brother Moore was concerned
about our changing needs in our communities and recognized the
important role that Sigma men could play in the lives of our youth.
The Sigma Beta Clubs' four major principals focus on Culture,
Athletics, Social and Educational needs. The Sigma Beta Club offers
our membership a unique opportunity to develop values, leadership
skills and social/cultural awareness in our youth during their
developmental years. Sigma Beta Club programs are geared to meet
the needs of its member, but at the same time provide them with a
well-rounded out look that is needed to cope with today's society. Phi
Beta Sigma is confident that investing in our youth today will produce
effective leaders of tomorrow.
