Sigma De Mayo
Signature Centennial Event
Signature Centennial Event
The Zeta Eta Sigma and Zeta Zeta Sigma Alumnae chapters came together to present a joint Signature Centennial Event - "Sigma De Mayo". In honor of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. entering its 100th year of service, celebrations are occurring throughout the organization. As part of the Central Region, the birthplace and foundation of Sigma Gamma Rho, it was only fitting that we hosted an event that everyone could attend from the comfort of their homes while also creating a space for sorors to connect prior to the Homecoming.
All were welcome for the Virtual Happy Hour!
Mixer Kit sales ended 4/29/22 - Spot reservation ended 5/3/2022
12 Days of Sigma
As a build up to the Sigma De Mayo Event, we created a fellowshipping/social media campaign that showcased the sorority's comraderie, networking and service throughout the year. Each of the days boasted a different set of challenges for individuals to complete, while utilizing the hashtag #sigmademayo. The top three competitor won a gift card from Amazon. This build up was another great way for active sorors, sorors who are interested in reactivating, women who are interested, affiliates and everyone to be interactive and allow a sea of RHOyal Blue and Gold to be seen throughout Facebook/Meta and Instagram.
New Year, New Us
January 2022 - We had a vision board party where we put our goals for the new year on display in virtual/physical scrapbook form to encourage each other.
