The Honorable Alpha Omicron Sigma Fraternity was established during the months of August and September of the year 1956, and was initially called Alpha Phriggia Sigma, through the efforts of a group of young students from the Pontifical Catholic University of Puerto Rico in Ponce, who were aware of a fraternity where the principles of equality, justice and fraternity were practiced to capacity. It was on April 1, 1957, when it was officially incorporated as a non-profit corporation by being registered in the Registry of Corporations and Entities of Puerto Rico.[1]
Charitiesedit
The fraternity has actively participated in different charitable activities such as "Rapados por una Causa II', which translates to "Shaved for a cause II", for the Cabezitas Rapadas foundation which assists economically and emotionally cancer patients in radio and chemotherapy.[2]
The fraternity has also participated in the collection of shoes of both genders for people with needs to later be delivered to the charity organization "Soles4Souls" Capítulo de Puerto Rico.[3]
After the 2010 Haiti earthquake, the fraternity was also collecting essential items to be donated to those affected by the earthquake.
