Founded by the "Seven Men of Vision", these men wanted to create an organization to help students graduate and to serve local communities through community service. This initial organization became Omega Delta Phi Fraternity. Over the years, Omega Delta Phi was named Fraternity of the Year for 2003, 2004, and 2005 by the National Association of Latino Fraternal Organizations (NALFO). Although one of the Greek organizations that founded NALFO, Omega Delta Phi withdrew their membership in December 2008.
