Greetings from Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated, Xi Zeta Chapter…
Welcome to our website!

Welcome to the website of the Xi Zeta Chapter of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated!  Since December 5, 1935, Xi Zeta has been cultivating the highest ideals of Scholarship, Service, Sisterhood, and Finer Womanhood in the St. Louis metropolitan area. Our members have completed a countless number of community service hours through participation in Zeta’s signature service program Z-HOPE, which stands for Zetas Helping Other People Excel.

We have consistently expanded our reach into the community by also focusing on programs and activities that meet the needs of the communities that we serve.  Specifically, we have supported local schools through the Adopt-A-School program, ensured that our seniors are cared for through the Elder Care initiative, as well as worked to bring awareness and an end to Domestic Violence.

One of Xi Zeta’s signature programs is our Stork’s Nest, which is a collaborative effort with the March of Dimes.  Since 1972, Zeta Phi Beta Sorority has enjoyed a partnership with the March of Dimes in an effort to encourage women to seek prenatal care within the first trimester of pregnancy thereby increasing the prevention of birth defects and infant mortality. The Stork’s Nest Program is designed to promote prenatal care participation and healthy behaviors during the pregnancy through two components – incentives and education.  Xi Zeta’s Stork’s Nest has existed in various locations around St. Louis, MO since 1975.

The Xi Zeta Chapter also has very active youth groups that participate in community service projects such as JDRF Walk, Ronald McDonald House, Sickle Cell Association, Shriner’s Hospital and March of Dimes just to name a few. There are three youth groups for girls ranging from 4-18 years of age.  Below is a description of each youth group:

• Archonettes are high school-aged young ladies who demonstrate an interest in the principles of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc.
• Amicettes are girls 9 to 13 years of age who are willing to strive toward the high ideals of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority and who demonstrate potential for leadership in service to the community.
• Pearlettes are girls 4-8 years old who are mentored by ladies of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. to become future leaders in their community.

In addition to working with our youth groups, Xi Zeta is also the sponsor of an undergraduate chapter, Tau Omicron, which is comprised of collegiate women, who are pursuing a baccalaureate degree at Southeast Missouri State University in Cape Girardeau, MO.

Please take time to explore this site and discover why we are the premiere chapter of the Midwestern Region! Learn more about our organization and our presence in the community.  We also invite you to follow us on social media to stay abreast of our events!
