Tempe Alumnae Chapter Leadership

President's Message

It is my honor and privilege to lead the talented and tenacious members of the Tempe Alumnae Chapter who volunteer their time and give their resources to support the mission of Delta Sigma Theta. Sorority, Inc. Since 1973, our chapter has upheld a legacy of sincere sisterhood, stellar scholarship, significant service, and stalwart social action. 


We are grateful for the support of our partners, donors, and sponsors. Thanks to your support we have elevated many of our community programs. We now have the capacity and have entrolled over 50 girls in our youth programs that expose them to cultural, professional, and academic development experiences, We have increased our scholarship funding to 6 opportunities for students to pursue higher education and have expanded our scholarship program to focus on community college students and students with financial need. We have educated the community on health issues and disparities, increased financial literacy, supported refugee families, and promoted entrepreneurship in the Black community. This is only possible through the voluteer hours and donations of our members and the support of our community.


As we just celebrated our 50-year milestone, we are steadfast in our resolve to Move Forward with Fortitude: Engaging Our Sisterhood, Empowering Our Communities, Elevating Our Impact.
