ABOUT ME
"No longer will Iota’s impact be measured by our years of existence or the number of members we have. We will be measured by the difference we make in our communities."
Orlando Grant joined Iota Phi Theta on March 30, 1995, at the Beta Pi Chapter, University of Akron, where he later served as chapter Polaris, leading the initiation of six brothers. He made history as the first Iota to become National Panhellenic Council President at the University of Akron, organizing a highly successful Step Show and earning multiple awards.
As a leader in the Beta Lambda Omega Chapter, Cleveland, he facilitated significant growth, securing over $250,000 in funding and expanding chapter membership by 350%. Currently, he serves on the National Board of Directors, holding various leadership roles.
