The mission of the Delta Zeta Foundation is to advance the Sorority’s vision to be a global women’s organization whose shared values truly inspire action and impact lives. With support from donors, the Foundation provides:
Scholarships & Grants: You can give to the General Scholarship Fund directly. After several years of steep inflation, there are a lot of women who have tapped out their resources and are looking for scholarships to remain in their college chapter and especially now, to pursue a needed master’s in their field of choice or professional degree.
New Continuing Education Grant for Alumnae: The Foundation is in the process of fundraising to launch a continuing education grant targeting ALUMNAE who, like me, complete professional certifications to enhance careers and resumes. With sufficient fundraising, the program will launch mid-2025 for alumnae who are pursuing careers in technology, fraud and risk, education, accounting, and the like. Look for information on how to apply soon. You can give directly to this fund now!
Learning & Health: Gifts to the Foundation's General Fund provide learning opportunities through the Foundation-sponsored learning platform. Even before the pandemic, Delta Zeta was in the forefront of mental health with Protect Your Shell, an online program that ALL Delta Zetas can use.
Affordability: In addition to scholarships and grants, donations to the Foundation’s General Fund provided a $650,000 grant to the sorority that will keep national sorority dues flat for the 2023-2025 biennium.
Please consider giving graciously through the Area III Giving Link to support these amazing opportunities and programs. No amount is too small as all gifts are given with BIG love.
