Meet the Founder
Monique Lamar-Whitson
As Founder and Crowned President of Sigma Alpha Sigma Sorority, Incorporated, the vision was established to create a sisterhood rooted in purpose, structure, and meaningful impact. Sigma Alpha Sigma was founded on the belief that when women are guided with clarity, accountability, and care, they rise into their highest potential.
Leadership within Sigma Alpha Sigma is anchored in service, integrity, and intention. The PRIDE Standards—Perseverance, Resilience, Inclusivity, Diligence, and Excellence—serve as the foundation for a culture that values growth, discipline, and unity over perfection. This sisterhood was designed to be a space where women are both supported and challenged to evolve.
Affectionately known as “Royal Pressure,” this leadership approach upholds high standards while extending grace, guidance, and unwavering support. The mission remains centered on developing strong women, strengthening communities, and building a legacy grounded in faith, love, and purpose. Sigma Alpha Sigma is more than an organization—it is a covenant of sisterhood and a commitment to rise together.
