Initiatives

One of the hallmarks of Zeta women is our commitment to service in our respective communities. Zeta Phi Beta members devote thousands of hours of service each year via our National Signature Programs and our individual chapter projects in our local communities.

• Z-HOPE (Zetas Helping Other People Excel)
  Z-HOPE is an interactive, holistic and multidimensional outreach service initiative designed to enhance, cultivate and empower participants to develop health promoting lifestyle choices across the lifespan. Z-HOPE builds on the Sorority’s legacy of service by offering a service initiative that addresses the mission-critical needs of a shifting population.
• Stork’s Nest
  Stork’s Nest is a prenatal education program operated by Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., the March of Dimes and cooperating community agencies. The program provides incentives and encouragement for women to keep prenatal care appointments, a critical factor for helping babies get a healthy start in life.
• Z-NEF (Zeta-National Educational Foundation)
  The National Educational Foundation of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. with 501c3 status is created and operated exclusively for charitable and educational purposes.
