Each year before Christmas, Pi Phi Chapter of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Inc., adopts 100 Angels (children) from the Salvation Army’s Angle Tree program.
Brother Guardino Miller coordinates this effort, which connects a deserving child with a giving Brother from our chapter.
The men of Pi Phi Chapter step up and do their best to grant each child’s Christmas wish. Bikes, dolls, clothing, jackets, shoes, games, toys, computers, televisions and other gifts are donated by the Brothers of Phi Pi Chapter.
For some of these children, these donations and will be the only gifts they receive this holiday season. And because Brothers donate clothing and jackets as well, these gifts are especially timely as colder weather sets in.
Pi Phi Chapter of Omega Ps Phi Fraternity, Inc. is a service organization, charged with impacting the community through political and social action, community service, leadership and professionalism. We seek to be proper examples of manhood and demonstrate the positive impact that men in general, and African-American men specifically, can have in the community.
