Our motto, "The Great Joy of Serving Others," is exemplified by Phi Kappa Psi's commitment to community service. Phi Kappa Psi was founded upon this ideal and it is our belief that service to one’s community helps develop us as men of integrity and is the greatest compliment to our education. There is no more powerful way to affect the world than a member's care for his community and fellow man. Therefore, service and Phi Kappa Psi go hand in hand. 

Service in Phi Kappa Psi takes on many meanings: our chapters are involved in their local communities through many fine organizations and our members take on important roles on campus to better the experience of students who will come later. Every April, Phi Kappa Psi members across the country unite in a day of service to reinforce our bonds with our communities and one another. 

"The Great Joy of Serving Others" is more than a motto - it is a tradition in Phi Kappa Psi dating to our Founders, William Henry Letterman and Charles Page Thomas Moore, caring for classmates at Jefferson College during an epidemic even before the Fraternity existed. Through service to our communities, Phi Psis connect our past to our future.

Phi Kappa Psi is proud to be partnered with our national philanthropy, Boys and Girls Club of America. For our members who are interested in strengthening their partnership with BGCA, visit the 'Philanthropy' container in Phi Psi Connect.
