Greetings
from the
Williamsburg Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.
located in the Colonial Capital of Williamsburg, Virginia.
Williamsburg Alumnae is a warm sisterly chapter that serves our
community and fosters the spirit of sisterhood.

Sorority, Inc., is a national public service organization of women
committed to educational and economic development. Delta Sigma Theta
Sorority, Inc. was founded on the campus of Howard University in 1913.
The twenty-two coeds who formed the first chapter set high scholastic
achievement as their standard for membership. In 1930, Delta Sigma Theta
Sorority was incorporated as a national organization. Today there are
more than 200,000 members with more than 800 chapters nationwide and
internationally. Follow the links below to our National web site

and is the stated mission to benefit others.
That five point thrust is:

We are proud of the consistently high level of programs
we have developed that benefit all in our large service area of
