I joined APhiG because I wanted a strong sense of community and a home away from home. I was looking for a place where I could find support, form meaningful connections, and be part of a group that shares similar values and goals. APhiG offered that safe space where I could grow, make lifelong friendships, and give back to my community. It’s been so much more than just an organization to me—it’s truly a family that I can always rely on

I decided to join Alpha Phi Gamma because it truly reflects my values of diversity, advocacy, and sisterhood. As someone who cares deeply about cultural awareness and personal growth, I was drawn to the sorority’s focus on empowering women from all backgrounds while promoting academic success and community involvement. I wanted to be part of a supportive network that encourages leadership, gives back, and helps me grow—not just as a student, but as a person. Alpha Phi Gamma felt like the perfect place for me to connect with like-minded women and make a positive impact in both my life and the community.

I joined APhiG because I wanted to find a sense of community on campus. I struggled with making friends and wanted an opportunity to be around girls who also had similar interests that I had. After getting to know the girls I knew that APhiG was so much more than a sorority, but truly a family. I don’t regret joining and have met some of my closest friends through this organization.

I chose APhiG to reconnect with my culture and find a group of people with similar interests and values. APhiG was a home for me throughout college, and I am grateful for all the experiences I had through this Sisterhood.

APhiG has given me sisters I can rely on for support and opportunities to learn more about cultures beyond my own. My sisters allowed me to grow in ways I never expected and I’ll forever be grateful for that!

Why APhiG is always such an important question for me because there is always such a multitude of reasons. I chose APhiG and continue to choose them because they were so warm and welcoming. All I had to do was just show up and be myself. They have held me together so many times and continue to be my biggest cheerleaders in life. They have shown me so much love and support in anything that I do, and continue to believe in me even if I don’t believe in myself. They push me and challenge me in ways that are so important in my development as a person. They are also some of the most badass womxn I have ever met. I am inspired by them day in and day out by the way they approach life with such joy and determination. APhiG will always be my home I go back to remind myself that I am loved and cared for and can do whatever I want. It is such a privilege to always be able to come home 💕

I joined Alpha Phi Gamma because I wanted to find a close knit community of asian women on campus. Being away from home was hard and I knew I wanted something more deep and meaningful than what I saw elsewhere. Additionally, the sorority allowed me to grow confidence and leadership skills that I desired as someone who wanted to become less introverted than in high school. The safe space created as we bonded over our asian american experience is something I will forever be grateful.

I chose to join APhiG because I didn’t have a close knit community before I came to college. APhiG was very welcoming and shared many cultural traits that allowed me to also share my background. APhiG also created a safe environment where I was able to share my academic and personal struggles. One thing I admire about APhiG is that they prioritize academics to ensure their members succeed.

I chose Alpha Phi Gamma because having grown up in a predominantly white neighborhood, I really wanted to find a community where I could connect with others who shared similar experiences and values to me. During recruitment, I immediately felt at home among the sisters and other potential new members and that sense of belonging has only grown stronger over time. Even after graduating, I've continued to stay close to many of my sisters and have even formed bonds with sisters I've met post-grad.

I moved to Missouri without knowing anyone and was looking for a way to make friends. Joining APhiG not only helped me make friends, but also sisters that I’ll love and cherish for life!

I chose to join APhiG because of the people. Sisters in APhiG became my chosen family. We looked out for each other and supported each other. I never thought of myself as the type to join a sorority, but I found Sisters who would be by my side, even past college.

To create a space for healing and resistance grounded in Asian American womxn identity exploration, social justice advocacy, and sisterhood.

I wanted to find a close knit group of girls who had similar interests and would help me in my development as an individual and career goals.

Finding a lifelong group of strong women who can uplift each other through the good times, bad times, fun times and all the unknowns.
