I think the cause is commendable, but why does this need to be a sorority?

Also, the nuts and bolts of the organization should have been discussed prior to incorporation.

This doesn't need to be a sorority. There are many support groups out there - and they don't charge dues.

I have been to support groups where I still felt not wanted or like I did not belonged & have been in a sorority years ago. Its to make everyone feel comfortable in a sorority setting. While support is not the only purpose, awareness & prevention will also be our mission.

Think out the box. Not trying to step on any toes. Just need advise.

You "were" in a sorority years ago? Why would you want to be in another?

And we don't need to think outside the box. We're not trying to create this organization. You asked for advice and you're getting it.

Agreed. Seems like it would be difficult to sustain a sufficient level of membership. This type of organization doesn't seem to have wide spread appeal. Perhaps creating a sorority whose singular philanthropy or service area is domestic and sexual abuse might be more viable.
