Be Owt Made Apparel

Sacramento, Calif. - October 9, 2012 - In college, it's hard to miss all of the Sorority or Fraternity organizations. The people in those organizations are constantly buzzing around campus, getting involved in the computer and trying to find the right recruits for their organization. Now, everyone thinks their organization is the best around, but respect is given to one another.

Many people have heard of the National organizations such as: Alpha Delta Pi, Alpha Phi, the Pikes and many more. But if you were in any African American or Multi-cultural clubs on campus you would definitely know about the National Pan Helenic Counsel. This counsel consists of nine divine African American sororities and fraternities: Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc., Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc., Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc., Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc., and last but not least Iota Phi Theta Fraternity, Inc.

As a greek, myself, want to always represent my organization to the fullest and be OWT at community service events, college campus events and create an awareness of my organization. Being in the greek world, I have noticed that there aren't as much "nalia" (paraphernalia) for some organizations as there are for others.

Creator of MADE Apparel, Miss Alexzandria Chill, member of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., had a brilliant idea to bring a funky, fresh and hip look to apparel for these NPHC organizations, as well as for the organizations Sigma Lambda Gamma and Sigma Lambda Beta.

"I noticed there weren't many cute t-shirts for my organization, Zeta Phi Beta, Sorority, Inc. so I decided to create my own," said Chill.

As other Greeks noticed the shirts, the buzz began and everyone wanted more!

Chill wants her t-shirt line to be more than just t-shirts. She wants it to be a movement in the community and in the Greek world. She said, "I want everything I do to have a purpose and an affect on my community."

The brands new "MADE Apparel" comes from a term in the Greek world. "I came up with the name MADE apparel because "MADE" is a term we use in the Greek world about those who have put in work for their organizations," said Chill.

If you put in work for your organization and you want to show your pride as a member of your organization, then you definitely need to get one of these shirts!
