ETA PHI CENTENNIAL
A Century of Omega Excellence in Boston:
Honoring the Past, Empowering the Future
Honoring the Past, Empowering the Future
Dear Brothers and Friends,
We are delighted to welcome you to the official site for the centennial celebration of the Eta Phi Chapter of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Incorporated! As we mark this significant milestone in 2025, we invite you to join us in honoring a legacy of brotherhood, service, and dedication that has thrived in Boston for a full century.
Founded on July 1, 1925, Eta Phi is the oldest graduate chapter in the 1st District, established by visionary Omega men who sought to continue their fraternal bonds long after college. Their commitment to unity and purpose laid the groundwork for a vibrant community that has enriched countless lives and fostered leadership in our neighborhoods.
Throughout this year, we will celebrate our history, reflect on our achievements, and look forward to the future of our fraternity. Together, let’s commemorate the enduring spirit of Omega Psi Phi and the impactful journey we’ve shared.
Stay connected for event details, stories, and ways to participate in this historic celebration!
Yours in Omega,
Brother Ray S. Gilkes
