DELTA SIGMA THETA SORORITY, INC.
INTELLIGENCE IS THE TORCH OF WISDOM
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. The sorority is currently a sisterhood of more than 350,000 predominately Black college educated women. This includes over 1,000 chapters located in the United States, England, Japan (Tokyo and Okinawa), Germany, the Virgin Islands, Bermuda, the
Bahamas, and the Republic of Korea.
The major programs of the sorority are based upon the organization’s Five-Point
Programmatic Thrust:
