ABOUT
The Children’s Defense Fund (CDF) is proud to partner with chapter members of the National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC), collectively referred to as the Divine Nine (D9), churches, community groups, faith-based organizations, and chapter members of other prominent membership organizations to introduce our CDF Freedom Schools at Home book program.
Through the Chapters Beyond Books partnership, those who make a generous donation to CDF will help their chapter or organization receive a shipment of culturally-relevant books to distribute into the hands and homes of children in grades K-12. Our goal is to distribute nearly 50,000 books across the country to families, helping them build their in-home libraries while also developing and nurturing their child’s love for reading.

Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated
Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated was founded January 16, 1920, on the campus of Howard University in Washington, D.C., by five coeds. These women dared to depart from the traditional coalitions for African-American women and sought to establish a new organization predicated on the precepts of Scholarship, Service, Sisterhood, and Finer Womanhood. The trail blazed by the founders has been traveled by thousands of women dedicated to the emulation of the objectives and ideals of the sorority.
A nonprofit organization, Zeta Phi Beta is incorporated in Washington, D.C., and in the state of Illinois. The sorority is supported by the dues and gifts of its members.
Southern Region - Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated is a 501(c)(7) tax-exempt exempt entity. Donations to the Southern Region, including dues, are not deductible as charitable contributions on individual tax returns.
