National Pan-Hellenic Council
at Columbia South Carolina
Welcome to our website for the National Panhellenic Council (NPHC) at Columbia SC. Feel free to peruse the site and enjoy a few snippets of our excellence in community service. NPHC at Columbia has a rich and very significant history in the surrounding communities as a result of the Greek Unity displayed throughout the 15 member organizations who comprise our membership. Our focus has consistently been on Political Awareness, Education, and Healthcare.
NPHC at Columbia was chartered more than 60 years ago, with a goal of community unity in mind. We have participated in countless community events to include scholarship awards for the collegiate members of our organizations, and other deserving high school seniors, healthcare events, voter registration and education drives, candidate forums and partnerships with like minded organizations.
I am indeed honored to serve as the 26th President of the NPHC for 2024-2025. As I embark on this endeavor, I would like to introduce my goals and platform:
Additionally, I want to urge everyone to follow us on Facebook and/or Instagram so that you can keep up with all the amazing things that NPHC is up to and take advantage of the many events that Divine 9 of Columbia is hosting. I kindly ask that you support the NPHC of Columbia and get in touch with us if you ever need our assistance as we proceed on spreading the light of Greekdom.
