Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. (Muskegon Heights Alumnae Chapter)

Mission: To provide assistance and support through established programs in local communities throughout the world.

Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated is an organization of college educated women committed to the constructive development of its members and to public service with a primary focus on the Black community.

Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated was founded over a century ago on January 13, 1913, by 22 young women studying at Howard University. They sought to create an organization rooted in sisterhood, scholarship, service, and social action. Today, we have blossomed into more than courageous women could have imagined, with over 350,000 initiated women and over 1,000 chapters located worldwide. The Muskegon Heights Alumnae Chapter was organized on December 12, 1976. The twelve charter members paved the way and dedicated themselves to the ideals and purpose of the Delta founders.

The chapter welcomes the opportunity to partner with other organizations and community leaders who share the same goals and ideals.

The members of the Muskegon Height​s Alumnae Chapter are dedicated to Sisterhood, Scholarships, and Service. Our chapter has stood steadfast in offering services to the county of Muskegon community by applying the five-point programmatic thrust, which provides service in a variety of activities and programs which benefit all ethnic backgrounds.

The organization’s Five Points Programmatic Thrust are:

1. Economic Development
2. Educational Development
3. International Awareness and Involvement
4. Physical and Mental Health
5. Political Awareness and Involvement

In the spirit of continuing Delta’s lifelong commitment to education, Muskegon Heights Alumnae Chapter has awarded more than $50,000 in scholarships to deserving college-bound students.
