The first public act performed by the Delta Founders involved their participation in the Women's Suffrage March in Washington, D.C., March 1913. Delta Sigma Theta was incorporated in 1929.
Here are just some of the many projects administered by our illustrious sorority.
Since its establishment, Delta Sigma Theta has clearly established itself as a public service organization that strives to confront the problems of African Americans and, hence, all Americans. A wide range of programs addressing education, health, international development, and strengthening of the African American family have emerged and evolved over the years. In realizing its mission, Delta Sigma Theta provides an extensive array of public service through its Five-Point Program Thrust of Economic Development, Educational Development, International Awareness and Involvement, Physical and Mental Health, Political Awareness and Involvement.
