National Panhellenic Conference

National Panhellenic Conference (NPC) was founded in 1902 and is the primary advocate and support organization for 26 inter/national women’s fraternities and sororities, its members, and college and alumnae councils. Each fraternity and sorority is autonomous as a social, Greek-letter society of college women and alumnae. Members are represented on over 620 college and university campuses in the United States and Canada and in over 4,600 alumnae associations. NPC represents over 3.6 million sorority women in the world.

The mission of National Panhellenic Conference is “to promote the values of and to serve as an advocate for its member groups in collaboration with those members, campuses and communities.” The creed is as follows:

We, as Undergraduate Members of women's fraternities, stand for good scholarship, for guarding of good health, for maintenance of fine standards, and for serving, to the best of our ability, our college community. Cooperation for furthering fraternity life, in harmony with its best possibilities, is the ideal that shall guide our fraternity activities.

We, as Fraternity Women, stand for service through the development of character inspired by the close contact and deep friendship of individual fraternity and Panhellenic life. The opportunity for wide and wise human service, through mutual respect and helpfulness, is the tenet by which we strive to live.
