Overview

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) may recognize a group of affiliated organizations as tax-exempt under a single umbrella. This designation is known as a group exemption.


Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. Group Exemption

Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. is a non-profit corporation recognized as tax-exempt under Section 501(c)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code. Through its group exemption, all recognized regions and chapters are entitled to share in the Sorority’s tax-exempt status.

This group exemption:

  • Enables chapters and regions to operate under the national organization’s IRS-recognized status

  • Eliminates the need for each chapter to apply for individual tax-exempt recognition

  • Serves as a compliance tool to ensure all entities under the Sorority maintain proper tax standing
