To better serve our communities, the men of Groove Phi Groove Social Fellowship, Inc. have pledged to support endeavors that project positive images of black American men and help to move us forward. This is an increasingly important challenge, as many people tend to focus on only the negative elements. We don’t want to lose sight of those achievements that required the anguish, blood, and lives of the many black Americans who were essential in building this nation. The men of Groove Phi Groove have accepted the challenge and recognize that our future success depends on our ability to serve as positive role models who will instill positive moral values in both our own children and those young, black American boys and men who may not have positive male influences in their lives.

The men of Groove Phi Groove will continually strive to set the right example by doing our best, pulling our own weight, and keeping our families, communities, and the Fellowship first and foremost in our hearts and minds. Through these convictions, the Fellowship’s contributions to society shall never end.

The strength of our Fellowship can be measured only by the ties that bind us.

Charlotte Graduate Chapter Groove Phi Groove SFI® Scholastic Foundation

The Charlotte Graduate Chapter Groove Phi Groove SFI® Scholastic Foundation (the Foundation) has an evolving transparent mission linked to the national character of Groove Phi Groove Social Fellowship Inc. The Foundation’s goal is to empower its community to spearhead dialogue on collaboration, partnership development and joint ventures aimed at encouraging individuals and organizations to do much more than they may envision towards raising critical consciousness, interest and Afrocentric values necessary to prepare youth and others as independent innovative thinkers, persons of influence, and positive role models.

Scholarship Application

Scholarships awarded by the Foundation focus on families who fall into the “Donut hole:” that is, their income is too much to qualify for a large block of financial aid packages, and it is not enough to qualify for other financial aid packages. In addition, the Foundation’s scholarships are awarded to students graduating from Division I schools who have a GPA of 2.7 (on a 4.0-system) or higher.
