The next step

Building Bridges, Embracing Brotherhood

Greetings, and welcome to the digital home of the Phi Rho Chapter of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Incorporated. It is both an honor and a privilege to connect with you as we take The Next Step in advancing our mission of friendship, scholarship, and service. As Basileus of this esteemed chapter, I extend my heartfelt thanks for your interest in our work and encourage you to explore the legacy, vision, and programs that continue to impact our communities positively. Guided by the ideals of Manhood, Scholarship, Perseverance, and Uplift, Phi Rho remains steadfast in our commitment to making a difference. As  Bro. Langston Hughes so eloquently wrote in Live Your Creed, “I’d rather see a sermon than hear one any day,” and it is through our actions that we aspire to lead and inspire.

Our journey forward is rooted in the collective spirit of men united by purpose, yet distinguished by service. As Bro. Walter Mayzick reminds us in Member Vs. Men, “A member shows up on meeting night, but a man shows up to uplift his community.” This principle guides the Phi Rho Chapter as we focus on tangible outcomes that strengthen brotherhood and serve the greater good. Whether you are a member, a supporter, or a community partner, we invite you to join us as we forge ahead, ever vigilant in our pursuit of excellence. Together, we take The Next Step toward building bridges and embracing the power of unity. Welcome to Phi Rho—where commitment to service and fellowship never wavers.
