CHAPTER HISTORY

The Union County Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. was chartered on January 28, 2011 in the South Atlantic Region,  by 18 members of our sisterhood.  We serve all of the cities and townships within the Union County limits of North Carolina.  Located just east of Charlotte, we have taken great pride in being a chapter that knows how to be a 'big impact' in a small town environment! 

Union County has stepped onto the scene in full force.  In such a short period time, our chapter has had the pleasure of hosting galas, golf tournaments, given out numerous scholarships, supported local high schools, encouraged voter registration, been a supporter and conduit for small businesses, facilitated health awareness programming, inspired individual exercise goals, along with a host of many other community service projects.  AND we've done this while making sure we continuously fellowship and worship together as a sisterhood.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for visiting our site and taking an active interest in the programming of our chapter.  If you would like additional information on the Union County Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., please feel free to reach out to us at the 'Contact Us' tab. 

SORORITY HISTORY

Delta Sigma Theta Sorority was founded on January 13, 1913 by twenty-two collegiate women at Howard University. These students wanted to use their collective strength to promote academic excellence and to provide assistance to persons in need. The first public act performed by the Delta Founders involved their participation in the Women's Suffrage March in Washington D.C. which took place in March of 1913.  Delta Sigma Theta was later incorporated in 1930.
