A SISTERHOOD DEVOTED TO PUBLIC SERVICE
The founders of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated were a group of twenty-two college-educated women who envisioned an organization that went beyond self-fulfillment. These courageous women wanted an organization that focused more upon the social issues of their time, in lieu of creating one that would cater to social whims of the community. Along with their concern for the welfare of human beings they also promoted academic excellence and wanted to culturally enrich community life. Although these twenty-two women shared similar values and concerns for humankind, they were each individuals who possessed their own unique inner and outer strengths. Eventually, these strengths came together to produce one flame, one vision whose torch will burn forever... Delta Sigma Theta |
