Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership and Phi Sigma Pi National Fraternity Announce New Partnership
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) December 10, 2015 -- Hugh O’Brian Youth Leadership and Phi Sigma Pi National Honor Fraternity announce an exciting new partnership to advance both organizations’ missions to help individuals affect change in their communities.
Phi Sigma Pi, a gender inclusive National Honor Fraternity, selected HOBY as their new philanthropic partner in part due to HOBY’s work in leadership, education, and serving youth.
“We are very excited to partner with an organization with a shared vision of motivating and empowering youth to make a positive difference in their communities,” said Javier LaFianza, HOBY President and CEO. “I know that our Ambassadors and volunteers will benefit greatly from this relationship for years to come.”
The partnership connects Phi Sigma Pi Chapters around the country to their local HOBY counterparts through service contributions, volunteerism, student sponsorship, conducting Community Leadership Workshops (CLeWs), in-kind donations, and more.
“Phi Sigma Pi was established on a Tripod of three ideals: Scholarship, Leadership, and Fellowship,” said Suzanne Schaffer, Phi Sigma Pi Executive Director. “In selecting HOBY as our philanthropic partner, Phi Sigma Pi Members connected immediately to HOBY’s ideals which correlate perfectly to our own. Supporting HOBY scholars to be the community leaders that they’d like to be is very exciting for us.”
