About Tri Delta

Tri Delta was founded by women, for women, in 1888 at Boston University when our Founders bravely created a new organization that would “think more of a woman’s inner character than her outward appearance.” Their vision has grown into the dynamic women’s organization we know today.

Today, Tri Delta is a network of nearly 250,000 women, and we are committed to lifelong learning through educational initiatives, transformational programming and relevant personal and professional development.

From supporting Tri Delta’s Foundation—which empowers collegiate and alumnae members through transformational programs, scholarships and emergency financial support—to supporting the life-saving mission of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and local children’s cancer charities, Tri Deltas are passionate about serving others.

A Message From Our President, Emma

"Looking back at my time at UNC, it’s hard to remember what life was like before Tri Delt—before I met the people I walk to class with every day, cheer with at basketball games, and dance around my living room with before big events. Tri Delta has been more than just a sorority to me; it has been my family. Our chapter is filled with the most kind, driven, and supportive women who lift each other up in everything we do. Whether it’s late-night study sessions, celebrating each other’s successes, or simply sharing the little moments that make college so special, this sisterhood has shaped my UNC experience in ways I never could have imagined. Whether you’re a potential new member, an alumna, or just curious about our chapter, I hope you feel the warmth of our sisterhood and the strength of our bonds."
