How Many of You are Founders?



Just out of curiosity: How many of you are Founders of your Brotherhoods/Sisterhoods? Are you a Founder of your entire organization (from its very beginnings), or are you a Founder of a Branch/Chapter of your organization?

My Fraternity was founded in 1858. My chapter (Beta) was founded in 1862 and has been continuously active ever since.

Our founders are alive in our spirit, but not in the flesh.

But, isnt it the truth that vertualy ever National that was a local when they started?

They started with one Chapter.

The only one I can think of off of the top of my head was TKN that was a group of locals who joined to be a Fraternity and then Merged with LXA in 1939.

It is still considered the largest Merger In Greek Social History.

Remember one thing!

Beinging a Founder is a great thing, but it takes all of the following Members to keep it working!
