Delta Chi Delta Alumnae Association

∆X∆ Delta Chi Delta Alumnae Association was established during the sorority’s 10th Anniversary year in 1949.  On March 10, 1993, we were officially chartered as an alumni organization by the Hofstra University Alumni Organization.

Our purpose is to provide an ongoing social and cultural environment for the sisters of Delta Chi Delta Sorority and to form a liaison that provides educational and financial aid to sisters attending Hofstra University.

Every year, we plan to award an endowed scholarship to provide financial assistance to Delta Chi Delta sisters attending Hofstra University or a family member of Delta Chi Delta alumnae (both undergraduate and graduate students).
