Founded in March 2017, Sigmas of Southern Arizona (SOSA) was created for three main reasons: 1) support historically black fraternities and sororities; 2) support the underserved; and 3) support youth through scholarships and mentoring.
SOSA’s previous initiatives include the BluPhi Ride Assistance program, which SOSA created in 2017 to provide safe cab rides to bar patrons. In 2017-18, SOSA obtained housing for eight homeless veterans in the Tucson area. Since its inception, SOSA continues to partner with local organizations to provide nonprofit business development services.
