Rhoers

A love for youth and the development of their full potential was the primary motivating factor that inspired Founder Mary Lou Allison Gardner Little to organize Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. Young people today face challenges that could never have been imagined years ago, but such challenges provide the sorority with opportunities to carry on the vision of Founder Little. Rhoer Clubs were originally founded in 1939 at the 14th International Boule of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc.

​

The Rhoer Club consists of a diverse group of young ladies between the ages of twelve and eighteen who demonstrate high scholastic standards. Rhoer Clubs are organized, maintained, and sponsored by local graduate chapters within each of the geographical regions of the Sorority.

​

The program consists of training and guidance in education, community service, vocation, fine arts, and social affairs. The program also provides the young women with the energy, support, commitment, and encouragement of the Sorors of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. to help them develop and succeed in their life’s endeavors.

​

Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority further seeks to inspire, encourage, and challenge Rhoers to advance themselves in terms of their talents and future careers. The Sorority also strives to assist Rhoers in developing positive, effective, and healthy attitudes towards life and society.
