Alpha Phi Gamma

FoundersAlpha Phi Gamma emerged in the Fall of 1993 and became a reality on February 1, 1994, as the first Asian American Interest Sorority on the campus of California State Polytechnic University, Pomona.

The Founders were Allex Choi, Candy Cunanan, Christine Nguyen, Sandie Rillera, Kolleen Kim, Grace Hsieh and Jennifer Oku. These Sisters wanted to bring together all women of different nationalities through the bonds of friendship and sisterhood.

The sorority was established to promote service and Asian Awareness to the University and to the community, allowing for all the different nationalities to discover what other cultures had to offer.

 

Colorado State University

Charter ClassColorado State University's Colony was started in the spring of 2008 by the Charter "Coco Chanel" Class" which consist of Michelleann Marlita Avilla, Hannah Chang, Lana Di, Anh Torry Ha, Jessica Lauren Iriye, Mai Thuy Nguyen, Cleoflins Ramos, and Melanie Kim Tran.

These eight women set out to find an organization where women of all different backgrounds could come together and find support within each other. On June 8, 2008 they crossed Alpha Phi Gamma and became life-long sisters and opened a whole new experience for women at Colorado State University.

Alpha Phi Gamma is the first sorority of its kind on campus and the second in the entire state of Colorado - that, itself, is a huge accomplishment. The sorority was able to provide growth for a whole new group of women who might have not had the opportunity to be leaders on campus.
