About Chapter 94
Chapter photo of founding members - 1927
Chapter 131 was founded in Joliet, IL. on January 26, 1927. There were 35 charter members by March 14, 1927. All were immigrants from Greece, their professions ranged from business owners to store clerks. All joined to protect themselves from the bigotry and racism they faced and experienced. Along with getting assistance to assimilate to their new home in the United States.
Chapter 131 proudly continues to be a strong presence in Joliet and the Greek community. We focus to help the community through donations to the needed, scholarship programs, and many more. We are nearing the 100 anniversary of our Chapter. We also partner with Daughters of Penelope Joliet Chapter 187.
