Purpose

Delta Kappa Delta Sorority, Inc. commits itself to the fostering of a united sisterhood, the development of indomitable spirit, the betterment of the community through humanitarian services and the education of ourselves and others about the Indian sub-continental culture. Furthermore, we dedicate ourselves to personal, cultural enrichment through the awareness and preservation of our traditions and morals.

 

Epsilon Chapter MISSION

Sisterhood is a legacy that transcends all racial, religious, and familial boundaries. Delta Kappa Delta Sorority, Inc. is dedicated to “Sisterhood built through Service”. Each hour of service we do provides an opportunity to teach our society about who we are and learn about others. Epsilon Chapter has been involved on campus, throughout the community, and nationally since we were founded at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2006.

 

Motto

I slept and dreamt that life was joy,

I awoke and saw that life was service,
