Welcome to the Kappa chapter of Theta Phi Alpha. My name is Tori and I am the president. I am so excited to share our sisterhood with you! The Kappa chapter was founded in 1922, making us the second oldest active chapter.

One of the most important pieces of our sisterhood is our philanthropic and service efforts. Our national philanthropies include The House That Theta Phi Alpha Built and Camp Friendship. We also work closely with the other organizations in the Fraternity and Sorority Life community to fundraise for The Children’s Miracle Network. We host our annual philanthropy Pumpkin Bash each fall, along with many other drives and fundraisers. As a chapter, we pride ourselves in giving back to the community. This past year, we have spent time hosting supply drives for the Women’s Center & Shelter of Greater Pittsburgh, gathering donations and canned goods for the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank, and participated in a local Adopt a Family to give back during the holidays. 

​

Outside of philanthropy and service, our chapter also values our academics. In the last academic year, we have celebrated many academic wins. Our cumulative chapter GPA was above the panhellenic average for both the fall and spring semester. Our Vice President of Academics, Bailey, has started our new Dean’s List Dinner and 4.0 treats to help us celebrate the individual academic achievements by our chapter members. Our chapter takes pride in our academic accomplishments and celebrates every individual's achievements. 

​

Theta Phi Alpha is more than just an organization. We are a family of inspiring and empowering women. Our tagline, “Ever Loyal, Everlasting”, applies to our commitment to sisterhood and community. Outside of Theta Phi Alpha, our sisters show their community efforts through involvement and leadership positions in other organizations. Some of these organizations include Gamma Sigma Sigma National Service Sorority, STEP @ Pitt, Camp Kesem, and Take Back The Night to name a few. 

I am truly honored to have the opportunity to serve as president this year. Theta Phi Alpha has given me my best friends, sisterhood, and so much love. Our sisterhood works hard to lift each other up and create a safe space for all of us to be ourselves. I am proud to be a member of and represent such an incredible organization.
