mkdir with diff group

I belong to multiple groups and sometimes I will need to create a dir for another group which I belong to. Is there a command I can quickly change my group before making these directories therefore avoiding multiple:
'chgrp -R group directory' statements?

TY

Look at the "newgrp" command.
