The Founding Fathers of Groove Phi Groove

On October 12, 1962, 14 men with a purpose and vision for a better world started Groove Phi Groove Social Fellowship Incorporated on the campus of Morgan State University (formerly Morgan State College). Keeping in step with the reawakening of what has been termed, Black Consciousness, these men incorporated the prominent cultural and nationalistic ideologies and creeds of the Black Power Movement into an organization that endeavors to continue the process of uplifting the "Black Man" and perpetuating the "Black Race".

Today, our Social Fellowship has active chapters operating in the United States and Ghana. We continue to look toward our founders to provide us guidance and leadership especially in more challenging efforts.
