If you have friends or school mates that are interested in starting a sorority/women's group in your area, you can look in the Locals forum for advice. That's a good place to look for posts on how others started their own sororities.

There are also several threads about non-collegiate sororities. You can check those out by using the search function.

Good luck!

Beta Sigma Phi claims to have chapters in 32 countries. Even if they don't specifically have one in Croatia it still should be helpful experience if you wanted to start a chapter of their organization.

Sounds like you don't want a sorority.

You just want to build a dormitory (living quarters) for women. Building a house does not = creating a sorority.

There's a difference. You might want to do a little more research.

Is it me or has the OPs spelling changed quite drastically from the original post to the most recent one?

Ok, this is going to require a lot of English reading but here goes:
This website -> NPC Members lists 26 sororities.
I recommend going to their websites and reading about their values. Different sororities value different things. Also, different sororities have different community service projects.

Find several that interest you and contact them about your interest in starting a sorority chapter in your country. I HIGHLY recommend having someone fluent in English write this letter or at least double check your English. Someone from these offices will be able to tell if they are interested in opening a chapter there.



What you want to do is not easy. If this does not work out, I would recommend donating your money to create a scholarship fund for women. This way you can contribute to their life experience by sending them to university.

/might as well treat this as serious, though it's a bit odd

This may sound like a really dumb question, but besides Canada, are there any countries out there that has NPC sorority chapters out there? Just curious

Tri Sigma used to have a chapter in Mannheim, Germany. If I'm not mistaken, the campus (affiliated with the University of Maryland) has since closed.

Those who know more info, feel free to correct me. Other than Tri Sigma I don't think there were any other NPC collegiate chapters outside the US and Canada. I'm sure that there are international alumnae chapters/clubs, though.

Maybe I'm overly pessimistic/cynical, but who wants to bet that "Zara" is really Zachary and wants to build and "sponsor" a "sorority house" for some kind of webcam website?

Good question, I know there are alumna chapters in Europe but beyond that no clue.

It just seemed like the only real direction to point "Zara" in if she's really interested in doing something like that.
