Alpha Gamma Delta
Founded: May 30, 1904
Philanthropy: Fighting Hunger
Favorite Chapter Event: Wiffleball Tournament "Swings"
Alpha Gamma Delta's vision is to "Inspire the Women. Impact the World." These words are what we attain our chapter to be, that is, a place where women can join to gain a community of sisters that supports them in and out of the chapter. With a 10-phrase purpose that we strive to live by, our most lived-out line is "To cherish friendships with but a chosen few and to study the perfecting of those friendships." Our sisters are our chosen few to be the family we need when coming to college. With that, we bring our family to help the lives of others through our philanthropy, "Fighting Hunger". With one major event a semester, we encourage students of SJU to join us in creating a better community, one full plate at a time!
