The fraternity's/sorority's encouraged their fellow members to participate in any community services and activities wherever it exist.
History[edit]
The Trivals was founded at the capital city of the Zamboanga del Sur Province [1] (Pagadian City, Zamboanga del Sur, Philippines) on the 17th day of September, 1997.
Founding Name[edit]
Way back on April 1997, it was headed by a group of friends which was started by a simple expression as Katribo (it means one or member of the Tribe). They called each other as Magulang (elder brother/sister) and Manghod (younger brother/sister). They called theirselves as TRIVALS from the word tribal which is letter "V" instead of "B". On September 17, 1997, Brod Eric Paul "Bangkay" Benida suggested and convinced Brod Canary "Fox" Palabrica about the formation of the Tri Sigma Phi. Brod Fox called for an urgent meeting to decide Brod Bangkay's suggestion and it was agreed to formally transform their friendship into Tri Sigma Phi fraternity/sorority with Brod Rene "Ren" Lastra, Brod Jojo "Jo" Cabrera and the other four members represent as the eight founding members (8 Archons).
Early Years[edit]
At the first month of founding, the Tri Sigma Phi was not that good in recruiting new members due to lack of confidence. When Brod Jojo decided to open the recruitment on Third year to Fourth year High School students, the name of the fraternity/sorority burst in all school in Pagadian City. Brod Rene and Brod Jojo recruits in Pagadian Junior College [2], Brod Bangkay and Sis Chanda in Zamboanga del Sur National High School. The recruitment was successfull and they made hundreds of member in just a month.
There were so many efforts in the beginning to establish chapters in other schools. In 1998 Brod Jojo attempted to open seven (7) chapter in Pagadian City, until the adjacent municipalities also established their own chapters. Brod Jojo was the responsible of the events, activities and community services
