House Resolution No. by Representative Carpenter designates April 16, 2025, as Zeta Phi Beta Day at the Louisiana state capitol. Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated, founded on January 16, 1920, at Howard University, was established by five coeds who aimed to create a sorority focused on social change and community service rather than elitism and socializing. The sorority has made significant contributions to society through various programs and initiatives, emphasizing education, volunteerism, and civic engagement, and has grown to include over 100,000 members and hundreds of chapters worldwide.

The resolution acknowledges Zeta Phi Beta's historical milestones, including being the first National Pan-Hellenic Council organization to centralize its operations and charter a chapter in Africa. It highlights the sorority's commitment to uplifting the African American community and its ongoing efforts to promote social and civic change. The House of Representatives expresses gratitude for the service and pride that Zeta Phi Beta members bring to their communities and the nation, celebrating their legacy and continued dedication to excellence as they enter their second century of service.
