Iota Phi Foundation is pleased to announce its Annual Achievement Awards Dinner to recognize local leaders for their contributions to the uplifting of the Greater Pittsburgh Community. The Foundation is operated by professional African-American men volunteers whose Mission is to improve the quality of life for citizens in the Greater Pittsburgh community. Each member of the Foundation are members of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity. The two organizations work together to recognize individuals within the local community whose contributions have made a difference in the lives of others. Each year the Foundation “presents” these honorees at a black tie (optional) event which includes a program and dinner.
