Honoring Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., on reaching the historic milestone of 105 years of scholarship, service, sisterhood, and finer womanhood.
HRES 51 is a ceremonial resolution passed by the U.S. House of Representatives to honor Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. on its 105th anniversary. The resolution commends the sorority for its founding in 1920 at Howard University and its decades of work in scholarship, service, and community leadership. It recognizes the organization's global membership (over 100,000 members across 875 chapters) and its historic milestones, including being the first National Pan-Hellenic Council organization to centralize operations and charter chapters in Africa. This resolution has no policy impact - it is purely symbolic recognition of the sorority's legacy.
