Chapter President
On behalf of the Xi Gamma Sigma Chapter of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc., I am honored to welcome you to our chapter website. Our chapter is committed to upholding the legacy of our illustrious sisterhood through service, scholarship, and sisterhood.
We take great pride in the work we do to uplift our community, whether through impactful initiatives like Swim1922, youth mentorship, educational programming, or partnerships that create lasting changes. Every effort we make is rooted in our mission to enhance the quality of life for those we serve.
Xi Gamma Sigma is more than a chapter, it is a collective of dedicated women working together to inspire, empower, and make a difference in the Summerville/Ridgeville area. We invite you to explore our work, support our initiatives, and join us as we continue to serve with purpose and excellence.
If you are new to the Summerville/Ridgeville area and you are a member of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc., I encourage you to visit our chapter and join us on our journey of making a difference in Summerville and the surrounding area.
We hope that our website provides you with information about Xi Gamma Sigma and Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. We look forward to seeing you at our future events.
