History
Lambda Sigma Gamma Sorority became a reality on October 24, 1986, when twenty-seven women sharing the same interest, beliefs, and goals came together. Since then, 25 additional chapters have joined, with the most recent chapters at California State University, East Bay and Notre Dame de Namur University in 2015. Lambda Sigma Gamma was officially incorporated and recognized as a service-based, nonprofit corporation by the State of Delaware on April 3, 1998. Subsequently, their sisterhood is also known as Lambda Sigma Gamma Sorority, Incorporated.
The national membership is estimated at 2,100 as of July 1, 2012.
