Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority Inc. will host a fall open house on Saturday, Sept. 18, 11 a.m.-1 p.m. at Rowan Public Library, 201 W. Fisher St.

This will provide information regarding affiliates, programs and initiatives.

The major initiative is Project Reassurance, which has evolved to focus on healthy choices, healthy living and healthy generations to help reduce teen pregnancy through a comprehensive year-round program addressing the factors that lead to teen pregnancy — low self-esteem, diet and economic issues — while also providing support and guidance when it does occur.

The group plans to implement the Hattie McDaniel Breast Cancer Awareness program, Be A Match, March of Dimes, HIV/AIDS prevention and education, annual youth symposium for healthy living, college fair, Founders Day, which would include providing a scholarship to a deserving student in the area and other events.

The organization will participate in the March of Dimes Walk on Sept. 11. The sorority is seeking a location to host it Project Reassurance Health Fair on Oct. 16.

The mission of the organization is to enhance the quality of life within the community. Public service, leadership development and education of youth are the hallmark of the programs and activities.
