Services to Our Community

Picture
Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. provides an extensive array of public service initiatives through its Five-Point Programmatic Thrust.

​Economic Development

​Our chapter participates in the Working wardrobe with the YWCA Redmond Village.  We donate our gently used professional clothing to this program that provides the clothes to women who need clothing for work or for pursuing their careers.

​During the Christmas holiday season, our chapter sponsors a family as a part of the giving tree at the YMCA Bellevue.  We coordinate the gift and the family in need through staff at the YMCA location.  This has been a fun activity for the chapter to participate in together, to help make the holidays a little happier for a family in need.
For the past 8 years, we have participated in the Mayors day of Hunger sponsored by the Emergency Food Program in King County.  Every fall, we help with this food drive that is held at various grocery stores across the county.

​

Educational Development

Picture
Our chapter has historically had a high school scholarship program.  Since 2010 we have given out over $20,000 in high school scholarships to a deserving senior high school woman of color who was college bound.
​
We have also had Delta Jewel/Academy programs.  These programs focus on the support, guidance and empowerment of girls and young women of color from middle school to their senior year of high school.

International Awareness & Involvement

Picture

Bellevue Alumnae Chapter supported again for the 11th straight year, a phenomenal project in Kasoa,Ghana. This project was the chapter's International Awareness Project, a work that, in the beginning, focused on the students attending The People's School for Positive Education, by expanding their school's physical structure and its curriculum.

Now this year, that focus has evolved into supporting the education of those students' parents and guardians.  Thanks to the lessons taught at the school, parents were able to see their children learn to read, and now they want that same opportunity. This sorority year (‘19-’20), we were able to help support that effort.

Political Awareness and Involvement

Picture
For the past 10 years, Bellevue Alumnae Chapter has partnered with the city of Bellevue for the Martin Luther King Health Fair.  This is a day long event, with entertainment from local community artists, singers, musicians, spoken word and more all in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King! We also hear words of encouragement from local elected officials. We share educational information about Dr. Martin Luther King and his legacy. 

​There are vendors providing valuable community health information, social service information, and community well being information.  There are cancer screenings also available.  And lots of give-aways, including a free raffle with great prizes.  This fun filled event happens on the Dr. Martin Luther King holiday every year.
The chapter has supported our national action of Delta Days at the Capital.  Every spring the chapters of Washington state come together for a gathering in Olympia to visit with legislators and advocate for causes important to Black Women.

Our chapter participated in the NAACP's “Black Voices Change Lives” voting campaign. Our volunteers adopted infrequent Black voters in important swing States by calling and/or texting them weeks before the 2020 election to boost Black voter turnout in 12 battleground states.
