Serving the Middle Georgia Area!

Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority was officially incorporated in Indiana on November 12, 1922, and achieved national collegiate status when it received its charter on December 30, 1929, establishing the Alpha chapter. Founded during a time of segregation, Sigma Gamma Rho is unique as the only sorority among the four historically African American sororities that make up the National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC) to be established at a predominantly white institution.
