Pi Lambda Phi (ΠΛΦ or Pi Lam) is a college social fraternity founded by Frederick Manfred Werner, Louis Samter Levy, and Henry Mark Fisher at Yale University in 1895. It was founded as the first non-sectarian fraternity, "a fraternity in which all men were brothers, no matter what their religion; a fraternity in which ability, open-mindedness, farsightedness, and a progressive, forward-looking attitude would be recognized as the basic attributes." and sponsors the March of Dimes as its national benefactor.
Philanthrophy
That all Men are created Free and Equal.
That no Society of Men can flourish unless Members of that Society are endowed with the Opportunities and Privileges of Freedom.
That Freedom implies the Elimination of Prejudice -- That the Elimination of Prejudice means a Better Understanding 'twixt Men.
That it is incumbent upon me to fight for such Freedom even with my Life.
That it is incumbent upon me in my Personal Life to be devoted to the Highest Standards of Honesty and Justice.
That because my Country is dedicated to the Highest Standards of Freedom and Justice for all Men of all Creeds, I hereby pledge Allegiance to my Country, and to its National Symbol. Famous Pi Lams
