The CapCity Alphas (ΒΓΛ) was chartered May 4, 1935 in Richmond, Virginia with approximately thirty-two Charter Brothers that include six (6) officers and twenty-six (26) members in that beginning year. Beta Gamma Lambda grew out of Gamma Chapter (the Third, Oldest House of Alpha) at Virginia Union University.

During that period in the early 1930’s, Brother Thomas W. Henderson was Eastern Region Vice-President. Brother Thomas W. Henderson was also a Past President of Virginia Union University and the Henderson Center was named after him in his honor. Then, as is the case now, they were college educated men from a diverse economic status, disciplines, geographical regions, and political persuasions. We are educators, administrators, lawyers, judges, social scientists, scientists, engineers, politicians, clergymen, bankers, etc.
