It all began in the year of 1969, at the peak of the Black Power Movement. African Americans were fighting for their civil rights, claiming their culture, and displaying their afro-centricity. On April 4th, the somber first anniversary of the murder of civil rights activist Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., twelve dynamic women displayed their commitment to the cause. Recruited by the Fellowmen of Groove Phi Groove Social Fellowship, Incorporated® to serve as their sister organization, our beloved Founding Sisters, proud, innovative and determined, stepped out on faith at Winston Salem State University to establish Swing Phi Swing, Social Fellowship, Incorporated®.

These bold, afro-centric sisters "dared to be different" by challenging the standard normality of pledging a "Greek lettered sorority" and went against the odds and established a unique Social Fellowship. They ignited a flame that would influence thousands of other women across the country to follow in their footsteps. Over the next four decades, their pioneering spirit continues to burn in the hearts of many sisters, transcending the boundaries of geography, social class, complexion and religious affiliation.

Today, Swing Phi Swing Social Fellowship, Inc.® is a unique, non-profit organization with over 50 active graduate and undergraduate chapters throughout the USA and a commitment to affecting social change, consciously uplifting women of color and being on the front line in regards to community involvement. We realize that as conscious African American women, we are an integral part of our communities. We accept our responsibility as Sisters With Interest Never Gone.
