History
Founded by 27 visionary women, Kappa Phi Gamma
Sorority, Inc. is the first ever South-Asian interest sorority. We
were established on November 8th, 1998, at The University of
Texas at Austin. Although Kappa Phi Gamma was founded as a South Asian sorority, she has expanded the warmth of her Sisterhood to any and all motivated young women willing to make a difference in her community and to uphold the principles that the sisterhood is based upon.
The Founders envisioned a sorority built around 8 principles: Character, Leadership, Scholarship, Sisterhood, Service, Culture, ​Womanhood, and
Self. Realizing the quality of the sisterhood could never be compromised, the Founders’ every endeavor thereafter was directed toward fostering these 8 principles and establishing a solid foundation for the
future before embarking on plans
for expansion.
Our Story
On January 27, 2008, six women chartered the Lambda Chapter at
George Mason University. They brought with them all the ideals and
principles to spread throughout this campus for other women to
embrace. They strived to continue the vision which the twenty-seven
Founders held, as well as embarking on a new journey with new sisters.
Since being chartered, Lambda Chapter sisters and alumni continue to set
strong examples of hard-working and perseverant women through various
leadership positions and high-level executive work within their respective fields. Currently Lambda Chapter is part of George Mason University's Multicultural
Greek Council where we strive to create a safe, prosperous, and healthy
space for our sisters and our community through various
philanthropic efforts, service activities, cultural events,
and academic workshops.
