Description

We are looking for committed men (ages 18-adult) to join and help us develop an Expansion Council that will help replicate this fraternal program across the country. We are not affiliated with the Black Greek Letter Organization, but hold all such fraternal organizations in the highest esteem. The purpose of Sigma Theta Rho (STR) is to promote a sense of community and unity among all people by engaging in community service, social action and youth development activities.
We are based in New York City and currently, we have brothers who live in PA, MD, NC and Nigeria. Adults in NY meet monthly. The minutes from those meetings will be shared with the national membership. Some of the activities in NY can involve members from all over the world - such as National Night Out. Non-NYC members (called the Expansion Council) meet by phone and by Facebook once a month and the topics of those meetings are generally about what needs to be done in various communities and how STR can assist in that effort.

We know that there is strength in numbers and we believe that if we can develop this organization to be one of the premiere voices in community service and revitalization, we can make some real change in the communities that need it most.

In order to become a member you must do three things: (a) have an active email account; (b) develop a Facebook account and (c) obtain 116 points by May 1st. You obtain points by participating in phone conferences/email and performing independent community service activities.

The first meeting of the Expansion Council will occur on Friday, November 5th at 7:00pm.

Interested candidates should email law3805@yahoo.com telling us: (a) their name; (b) age (you can say, Im in my 30s, etc.); (c) community/school and (d) why this appeals to you. We will then email you the application and you are all set.
