What is Delta?
SISTERHOOD * SCHOLARSHIP*SERVICE* SOCIAL ACTION
Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated was founded on January 13, 1913, by 22 collegiate women at Howard University to promote academic excellence and provide assistance to those in need. The Founders of Delta Sigma Theta envisioned an organization committed to sisterhood, scholarship, service, and addressing the social issues of the time. Since its founding, Delta Sigma Theta has become one of the preeminent service-based sororities, with more than 300,000 initiated members and over 1,000 chartered chapters worldwide.
As a sisterhood comprised primarily of Black, college-educated women, the Sorority seriously considers the issues impacting the Black community and boldly confronts the challenges of African Americans and, hence, all Americans. Over the years, a wide range of programs addressing education, health, international development, and the strengthening of African American families have evolved. The major programs of the Sorority are based upon the Five-Point Programmatic Thrust: economic development, educational development, international awareness and involvement, physical and mental health, and political awareness and involvement.
The Brevard County Alumnae Chapter was established on February 10, 1968 and is a part of the Southern Region of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., which includes all chapters in the states of Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, Tennessee, and the paradise nation of the Bahamas. The chapter’s service area includes the cities of Cape Canaveral, Cocoa, Cocoa Beach, Merritt Island, Mims, Port St. John, Rockledge, Scottsmoor, Sharpes, Titusville, and Viera.
The Brevard County Alumnae Chapter is committed to provide public service projects in the communities we serve under the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.
