An 80-Year Celebration of Excellence, Service, and Brotherhood
GOLDEN GALA
2025
Join us for an unforgettable evening as the Kappa Iota Chapter of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc. celebrates its 80th charter anniversary with an inaugural black-tie affair — The Golden Gala.
​
Since 1945, Kappa Iota has been a pillar in the Chattanooga community, grounded in Omega’s cardinal principles: Manhood, Scholarship, Perseverance, and Uplift. Through initiatives such as our annual Thanksgiving and Christmas basket giveaways, the Minority Health Fair, our mentoring program, and our enduring scholarship efforts, our chapter has proudly served, inspired, and empowered generations.
​
This milestone event will take place during the chapter's Achievement Week and will honor the past, celebrate the present, and plant seeds for the future.
