Legal Question in Discrimination Law in Pennsylvania

Defermation of character

I am a memember of a national organization that is divided into sub chapters that make up the organization. because i am a member of this organization what ever I do i represent the whole organization. Recently my chapter was sanction for suspension base on hear say rumors of an illegal activity. When i ask for proof of illegal activity they ignore the proof but has place an suspension on my chapter. Can i sue for defermation of character although they think they punishing the chapter they are really hurting the members who has yet to see a burden of proof of illegal activity.
