"Delta Zeta is truly a life changing, enriching organization. I am the woman that I am today because of Delta Zeta. Through my years in DZ, I have grown in sisterhood, friendship, empowerment, and have been given so many opportunities that I will be forever grateful for. I am incredibly proud of my sisters and our impact on not only our community, but the world.”

-Kaylee Volpe, former Chapter President
