Pi Lambda Chi Latina Sorority, Inc. 

In the true Pi Lambda Chi spirit of being welcoming and loving, the Madres and the Active Sisters of the Alpha Chapter began the expansion of their second chapter, the Beta Chapter, at the Auraria Campus in the heart of Denver, Colorado. 
The Madres' vision to open the doors to all women became a reality in Fall 1997 when seven women from the University of Colorado at Denver and Metropolitan State University of Denver began the journey of becoming a Golden Chi. The group wanted to establish the sorority on their campus to create a family and add to the multicultural Greek community already established on campus.
On November 10th, 1997, the seven women- Jolien Duran, Valerie Gutierrez, Jayme Maestas, Tanika Martinez, Felicia Montoya, Jenise Trujillo, and Gina Ramirez- crossed into the Pi Lambda Chi sisterhood. As Founders of the second chapter, these women became known as "Comadres," not to be confused with "Madres" of the sorority.
The Beta Chapter's first intake class began in Fall 1998: two lovely ladies, Celena Garcia and Serenity Valdez.
