"Our story"


A little about E-Phi

The Epsilon Phi Chapter was chartered on January 9, 2016, by 10 lovely ladies who wanted to help service the Humble and Northeast Houston area. As one of the newest chapters in the Southwestern Region, they have been able to achieve on the Regional level 2018 Outstanding Chapter of the Year in only two years of existence and the Regional and National 2021, 2022, & 2023 Outstanding Chapter of the Year starting in our fifth year. To top it off, they have won numerous 1st place regional and national awards over the years including their three Iota auxiliary groups (Pelati, MOI, and FIL). 
One of their most memorable moments is that they inducted 17 new ladies to join the chapter in November 2016 which was the largest line in the history of the Southwestern Region and have developed a signature youth program "Wheel of Careers" which helps all youth to learn about numerous career opportunities that they may not have thought of pursuing.
