Beta Sigma Phi is an international organization for women
spanning 23 countries and having over 250,000 members
worldwide in 12,500 chapters. Walter W. Ross founded the
sorority in 1931 in Abilene, Kansas, as a reading club for his
wife and her friends. During the Great Depression, he realized
a need and created this sorority as an outlet for social contact,
self-development, spiritual fulfillment and the opportunity for
service to others.
Beta Sigma Phi is now the largest organization of its kind in
the world and is a life, learning and friendship sorority. We
are women of all ages, interests, educational and economical backgrounds. We are dedicated to helping women fulfill
their lives by encouraging them to make time in their
busy schedules for friendship and fun!
Beta Sigma Phi could be just the right organization for you
if you are a woman looking for new friends and fun things
to do! This organization will provide you with friends that
enjoy community service as well as great social activities.
