Agreeing with others that you likely DO know sorority women. You just don't know who they are!
For example, I belong to an NPHC sorority, so I wouldn't be able to help you personally, and you might think at first glance that I couldn't possibly be of any use in this particular quest.
HOWEVER! I have very close friends in Delta Gamma, Kappa Alpha Theta, Kappa Kappa Gamma, and Alpha Chi Omega. If I knew you and wanted to help you, I could make a few calls. (... and those 4 orgs are off the top of my head; I also know ladies who were Greek but I don't know offhand which organization.)
Now, I don't know you (...so please don't PM me asking me to help you!), but who DOES know you is your friends' parents, your parents' friends, your parents' coworkers and coworkers' wives, your church members, your neighbors, your school teachers, your ex-babysitters, your dance and piano teachers, and so forth. Among them are people like me who either know women who were in sororities, or who were in a sorority but you aren't aware of it. If you don't know them, you are about to GET to know them. Work your network.
Don't assume you don't know anyone who can help. Instead, assume that you know several people who can help; you just don't know who they are yet.
