Tacoma Alumnae Chapter - Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.

The Tacoma Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority was chartered April 30, 1972. Scholarship Brunch 2026: https://tinyurl.com/ScholarshipBrunch26

Soror Williams, Past Farwest Regional Director officiated. Seattle’s Chapter Sorors Mona Bailey, Alice Dawson, Alice Smith, and Dorothy Baker, assisted with the Chapters installation ceremonies. Soror Bertha Pitts Campbell, Alpha Omicron Chapter, one of the founders of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., highlighted the ceremonies. With an energetic slate of officers, it did not take this new chapter long to get started on Delta’s Five Point Program. The first of many projects was the Voter Education Drive from May through September. Deltas served in advisory capacities, campaigned for Black officials, had political workshops to educate the community on local initiatives, and conducted seminars on elections and voting. Programs were established to broaden the educational and cultural experiences for Black youths. Their goal was to heighten the awareness of the youth of a new and better economic status and enhance the possibilities of improving their own living. A Teen Lift program was established at Lincoln High School in Tacoma, Washington, with the major emphasis placed on increasing self-confidence, communication skills and strengthening leadership qualities. Teens were also instructed in self-esteem building, poise, and charm. Career opportunities were stressed and college program information was made available by sorors. Not only did this Chapter rally around the needs of the youth but also found the time to interact with seniors. The Chapter participated in a Christmas program for seniors at the M Street Apartments in Tacoma. There they entertained 35 senior citizens, during the Christmas holidays.

☕ Bites & Ballots: Where We’re Gathering, and Why It Matters ☕

On Saturday, October 17, 2:00–3:30 PM, the Tacoma Alumnae Chapter will gather at Red Elm Cafe, a Black-owned Hilltop gem at 1114 Martin Luther King Jr. Way.

Red Elm is now owned by Tacoma native Calvin Williams. His mother, Cassandra Williams, is a Hilltop daughter and owner of Love by the Slice bakery just down the street. Together, this family kept a beloved neighborhood gathering place open and thriving. Their legacy of community, culture, and good food fits right in on MLK Way.

Come for the conversation and stay for the waffles. Try the cookie butter or strawberry crunch waffle with a chocolate-dipped chai. 🧇
At Bites & Ballots, we’ll talk through what’s on your ballot, how to return it, and why every voice counts. All are welcome, and our conversation is nonpartisan. 🗳️

Economic Development and Political Awareness go hand in hand. Where we spend our dollars and how we cast our votes both shape the future of our community. Let’s show up for both.

📍 Red Elm Cafe | 1114 MLK Jr. Way, Tacoma
🗓️ Sat., Oct. 17 | 2:00–3:30 PM

Hellloooooo, October! ❤️🎀

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a time to raise awareness, encourage early detection, and show love and support to those whose lives have been impacted by breast cancer.

As we move through this month, let’s be a little more intentional about taking care of ourselves. Schedule your recommended screenings, stay aware of changes in your body, keep up with your routine checkups, and encourage the women in your life to do the same.

Take care of yourself. Check on your people. Spread the word. ❤️🎀

Happy !

Today we honor the legacy of the last enslaved African Americans in Texas who were finally informed of their freedom, some two and a half years after President Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation. It was those people, and the generations of Texans who came after them, who made the bold declaration to celebrate this day, marking a reality we know far too well in this country: freedom may be delayed, but it will never be denied.

Though our fight for freedom sadly continues, today we pause to celebrate and embrace the joy of our ancestors who believed in the possibilities of a more promising tomorrow. And in that joy, we remain anchored, steadfast in our pursuit of true freedom and justice for all.
