| In Search of Sisterhood Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. Delta Sigma Theta Sorority was founded on January 13, 1913 by twenty-two collegiate women at Howard University. These students wanted to use their collective strength to promote academic excellence and to provide assistance to persons in need. The first public act performed by the Delta Founders involved their participation in the Women's Suffrage March in Washington D.C., March 1913. Delta Sigma Theta was incorporated in 1930. A sisterhood of more than 200,000 predominately Black college educated women, the Sorority currently has over 900 chapters located in the United States, England, Japan (Tokyo and Okinawa), Germany, the Virgin Islands, Bermuda, the Bahamas and the Republic of Korea. The major programs of the sorority are based upon the organization's Five Point Programmatic Thrust: • Economic Development • Educational Development • International Awareness and Involvement • Physical and Mental Health • Political Awareness and Involvement For more information about Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., visit our National website at www.deltasigmatheta.org. Baltimore Metropolitan Alumnae Chapter Baltimore Metropolitan Alumnae Chapter (BMAC) was chartered on March 1, 1987 by 36 illustrious women who continue to support the public service activities of our sorority nationally, regionally, and locally. Because the meaning of sisterhood is wholeheartedly embraced by Baltimore Metropolitan Alumnae, chapter membership has grown over the years by appealing to and reclaiming inactive Sorors. Membership has also grown through the membership intake process. On November 21, 1988, April 12, 1991, April 26, 1996, February 7, 1999, April 8, 2001 and April 13, 2003 initiates were welcomed into the Baltimore Metropolitan Alumnae Chapter. As members of the largest public service sorority, the Sorors of BMAC have worked diligently in many social and political activities. We remain cognizant of the many challenges that affect African Americans and remain active and vocal in efforts to uplift Baltimore and other regions of the global African American community. BMAC is a member of the Historic, Dynamic, and Energetic Eastern Region. Visit the Eastern Region website at www.easternregiondst.org. BMAC Charter Members Yvonne D. Addison Julia B. Anderson, PH.D.
