About Us--

To tell you a little about us, we are a National Feminine Lesbian Sorority that reigns in Carnation Pink, Ice Blue and Pearl White. Although we cater to feminine lesbian women we do not discriminate against bi-sexual, heterosexual women, or any race. We feel that it is ultimately wrong to deny anyone the right to be interested in a sorority such as ours. There are many women that would love to participate in the many volunteer activities that are present in our lesbian communities as well as in the heterosexual arena.

Beta Phi Omega Sorority, Inc. was founded on June 27, 2000 and officially incorporated on January 16, 2001. The first chapter of Beta Phi Omega Sorority, Inc. was established in Tallahassee, FL and there are Five Founding Diamonds: A. Perez, M. Wright, N. Lanier, D. Bender, and A. Spencer. We do a wide range of community service, such as Aids Awareness, The March of Dimes, Breast Cancer Awareness, Safe Sex seminars, Black Lesbian pride events, and so much more. We are always looking for dedicated women to help Beta Phi Omega Sorority expand in your city or state. We need women that can be leaders and are not afraid to make a mark in history! Beta Phi Omega Sorority, Inc. is a sorority that is strongly geared towards awareness, pride, love, joy, prosperity, community involvement, and last but certainly not least lesbian victory!

So basically, this is where we would write some long, sappy dialogue talking about the inspiration, motivation and any other sundry -isms randomly attached to LesbianAlliance.com. However, we won’t bore you with the minutiae of Sara’s daily "epiphanies", Tabby’s random spoutings or any of our other staffers oh-so-important lives. Still, we do think you should know "why" LesbianAlliance.com is here and what we intend to accomplish with our presence; otherwise, on to our mission statement.

LesbianAlliance.com is both lesbian owned and operated and thus, our interest in gay women is both integral and sincere. Our goal is to create a stronger, united voice for gay women within the GLBT community. We promise to provide a safe place to network, communicate, create and seize opportunities on a national scale. By building a wellspring of professional advice, informative content, and useful, lesbian-friendly resource listings of all sorts we hope to bring the lesbian community closer together.

History
On Thursday December 9th 2004 the sisterhood of Sigma Nu Omega was created. After collectively exploring other organizations, the founders of "Sigma" decided there was no sisterhood like the one that was already established between the six of them. These women, known today as The Black Pearls, decided to reach out to other women of their kind and share the sisterhood that they created along a chance to plant a seed in the LGBT community. Built on a foundation of family values, Sigma Nu Omega will always stand strong. Well overdue, the quest to find sisterhood has finally come to an end.

Mission Statement
Sigma Nu Omega's mission is to empower and affirm the lives of all women by deconstructing the strong holds of homophobia and to promote health awareness within the LGBT community.

Our Purpose
Sigma Nu Omega's Purpose for existence is to serve as a Greek Letter Organization where women of all race, creed, and sexuality can be comfortably accepted. The purpose of a Sigma Sister is to uplift and support the LGBT community to the fullest extent.
