According to Phi Mu headquarters, there are almost 10, 000 Phi Mu members in the state of Georgia, with about 4,000 in the Metro Atlanta region.

"Members of Phi Mu come from all walks of life, all ethnic and religious groups, all parts of the country," continued Forscher. "But when they join Phi Mu, they become part of one common heritage and one history that gives them the common ground of sisters, of a family. That is what we celebrate in March - the common thread that makes unity possible in such a disparate and diverse group of women."
