Sorority Fundraiser

Theta Lambda is a local chapter of the national organization Phi Beta Psi Sorority, founded in Columbus, Ohio in 1904. It is a civic organization not affiliated in any way with a college or university . The purpose of Phi Beta Psi is charitable work and civic projects. Our 2009 National Convention in Cincinnati voted to give $332,100 in research grants to six doctors. At a local level, we assist Ohio County residents diagnosed with cancer.

Our current fundraising project is selling fresh pecans, $6.50 a bag. If you would like to order pecans, contact Kathy Ruch at 438-4057.
