Here Come the Philos!

Since its inception, Sigma Gamma Rho has promoted unity among women and has worked with individuals who were not members of Greek-lettered organizations. These women were organized into auxiliaries that had various names until 1954 when the sorority, officially, approved the organized affiliate group and accepted the name of “Philo”(meaning Friend) as their official name.

In 1980, the Philos were organized on a national level and have since grown to represent hundreds of women organized on a regional level. The Philos have contributed countless hours of community service and thousands of dollars aiding Sigma Gamma Rho’s aim to enhance the quality of life within every community.

On Sunday, March 3, 2024, EKS completed their family with their Philo Affiliate! 

Ladies of Epsilon Kappa Sigma Chapter of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority ,Inc. would like to intRHOduce our CHARTER line of EPSILON KAPPA SIGMA CHAPTER PHILO AFFILIATES 

Our Rhosebud and Philo Affiliate partnered together to assemble and deliver sibling care kits to siblings of children in the NICU at Dayton Children’s Hospital in honor of one of our National Service projects: March of Dimes.

Each girl raised money to purchase materials for the kits and our Philos supported the girls with putting the kits together for delivery!
