Lambda Theta Phi is a non-profit service/social fraternity
which emphasizes Latino unity and the celebration of the Latino culture. With its acceptance into the National
Inter-fraternity Conference (NIC) in 1992, Lambda Theta Phi became the first
nationally recognized Latino Greek letter fraternity in the country. The fraternity’s goals are to promote scholarship, Latino
unity, respect for all cultures, and brotherhood. Lambda Theta Phi has set out to accomplish these goals through responsible
political and social action. By working in the surrounding communities, the fraternity hopes to provide both services and positive
role models, as well as enhance the image of the Latino culture. Lambda Theta Phi has been involved in numerous voter and citizenship
registration drives, has hosted Hispanic college days (introducing thousands of high school students to college), anti-drug rallies,
brought noted speakers to college campuses, marched in parades, and organized various cultural, educational and social events. The
fraternity has received commendations from the American Red Cross for its fundraising efforts on behalf of the victims of the
Mexican earthquakes, the Puerto Rican mudslides, the Colombian volcanic
eruptions, Florida’s hurricanes, and the United States’ homeless. The brotherhood includes men of diverse backgrounds and
descents working together to realize the organization’s goals. Brothers of Lambda Theta Phi have gone on to become
attorneys, scientists, accountants, architects, engineers, entrepreneurs,
politicians, and leaders in other fields. Brothers of Lambda Theta Phi
have had the distinction of holding positions such as President of the New Jersey Hispanic Bar Association, Executive Director of
ASPIRA Inc. of New Jersey, National Director of the Cuban Voter’s League, Executive Director of the Democratic Party for
South Florida, State Senator, and U.S. Congressman. Lambda Theta Phi prides itself in the strength of its
brotherhood. It provides a support group to help ensure that all brothers achieve their greatest potential. The fraternity believes
in power through education. With the creation of the Educational Foundation, the fraternity has given numerous scholarships to students
and has funded educational workshops and conferences. We believe that united there is nothing we can not accomplish. “En La
Union Esta La Fuerza” (In Unity There is Strength). *Hosted on
