Brother Carter G. Woodson "The Father of Black History" inspired the establishment of National Achievement Week to promote the study of Negro life and History. In 1927, the Fraternity made Achievement Week an annual observance. In 1976, this commemoration evolved into Black History Month.

2024 year in review

Eta Nu Nu Chapter established partnership with I Know I Can Founders’ Scholarship with a $100,000 commitment to support a student of color who matriculates at an HBCU

Achievement Week is a cornerstone of the Eta Nu Nu Chapter of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc., dedicated to honoring outstanding contributions from our members and partners while highlighting our service to the community. In November 2024, we hosted a series of impactful events that culminated in our highly anticipated Annual Achievement Week Banquet at The Boat House at Confluence Park in Columbus, Ohio. With over 225 attendees, the banquet celebrated the Chapter’s achievements, recognized exemplary leadership, and honored community partnerships that enable us to serve our city effectively.

The evening featured a keynote address from Brother Clement Osimetha, Grand Counselor of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc., and a captivating performance by Antoine Lee, our 2024 Talent Hunt winner. Among the highlights was the presentation of awards to those who exemplify the values of Omega Psi Phi. Brother Jim Goshay received the prestigious Omega Man of the Year Award, while Brother Clifford Jones was honored with the Brigadier General Charles Young Military Leadership Award. Other awards included the Basileus Awards (Brothers Gregory Riggins, Antonio Caffey, and Christopher Plummer), Brotherhood Awards (Brothers Leon Peacock, Judson L. Jeffries, Melvin Robinson, Steve Hartley, and Tamaul Boston), and the Unsung Hero Awards (Brothers Stanley Phillips, Sr. and Ruben Green).

We also honored Ms. Tei Street as our Citizen of the Year and celebrated community partners such as Loletia Davis (The James Cancer Center), Deborah Pickens (Kingdom Knowledge Foundation), Christin Brown (LifeCare Alliance), Erin McDaniel-Baccus (JP Morgan Chase), Laurise Johnson (Lifeline of Ohio), and Bishop James DeLaney (The SJCC Event Center) with Outstanding Community Partner Awards. Additionally, Humanitarian Awards were presented to Bishop Timothy J. Clarke (First Church of God) and De Lena Scales (City of Columbus Department of Neighborhoods) for their unwavering support and advocacy.

Achievement Week is a time to reflect on our Chapter’s progress since our founding in 2020, and this year was no exception. Through collaboration with our members, partners, and the broader Columbus community, Eta Nu Nu continues to make a meaningful impact.
