The aim of the Scholarship Program is to enhance academic achievements among undergraduate members. Graduate chapters are tasked with offering financial aid to both student members and non-members. A segment of the fraternity's global funds is dedicated to scholarships administered by the Charles R. Drew Scholarship Commission.

A global committee will oversee the diverse programs of different chapters. Social action initiatives encompass activities like voter registration, educational campaigns, addressing illiteracy, collaborating with Habitat for Humanity, volunteering for charitable causes, mentoring, and participating in fundraising events for organizations such as the American Diabetes Association, United Way, and those supporting individuals with Sickle Cell Anemia, among others.
