Bellevue Alumnae Chapter

 

Welcome to the web site of the Bellevue Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. Since 1913 our Sorority has been a beacon of light for college educated, predominately African American women across the globe, promoting academic excellence and public service. Following in this tradition, the Bellevue Alumnae Chapter, established in 1989, lights the way for public service projects on the Eastside communities of Seattle.

 

Visit our site often to see some of the community activities the chapter is involved in. Our site provides information about our many activities and our projects and programs designed around Delta Sigma Theta Sorority’s Five Point Program Thrust:
