Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. – Alpha Lambda Sigma Alumnae Chapter - Cleveland OH

Programs

Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority provides service to the community through its national programs. All sorority national programs and initiatives are under the umbrella of a signature program entitled, Project Reassurance. Through Project Reassurance, Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority seeks to promote responsible living highlighted by the slogan “H3: It’s All About ME!” which focuses on Healthy Living, Healthy Choices, and Healthy Generations.

Below are the programs that Alpha Lambda Sigma Alumnae Chapter has hosted and part:

Youth Symposium

Sponsored in conjunction with and in commemoration of Sigma Week, the Sigma Youth Symposium was designed to highlight some of the prevalent concerns that negatively impact our youth: drugs, teen violence, abuse, low self-esteem, suicide, teen pregnancy, etc. Held on the second Saturday of March by each Alumnae Chapter, simultaneous Sigma Youth Symposiums address issues that affect teens today.

 

Operation BigBookBag

A Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority International Project in which chapters provide selected schools and other facilities across the nation with book bags, notebooks, writing and drawing paper, pencils and pens, dictionaries, thesauri, rulers, glue, construction paper, textbooks, computers and many other needed school items.

St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital Campaign

Through the collaborative efforts of undergraduates and alumnae chapters of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, we have committed to raising $90,000 in honor of our Founders for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital through the Girls’ Night In Campaign.

 

March for Babies

In support of our partner, the March of Dimes, Sigma Gamma Rho has a national March for Babies team. We help babies by raising funds used to sponsor research, medical services and support families with premature births. Through this partnership, the sorority focuses on the  H3- Healthy Generations initiative. March for Babies began as a part of the sorority signature project, Project Reassurance. Sigmas and affiliates across the country participate in the March For Babies scheduled in the spring of each year.

Hattie McDaniel Breast Cancer Awareness

Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority is committed to providing education on and active support of early detection as well as research for the prevention and cure of breast, prostate, ovarian, colon and other types of cancers. We highlight this project in various ways in October as we honor our soror and actress, the late Hattie McDaniel, who died from breast cancer.
