Delta Gamma offers to women of all ages a rich heritage based on principles of personal integrity, personal responsibility and intellectual honesty. Its primary purpose is to foster high ideals of friendship, promote educational and cultural interests, create a true sense of social responsibility, and develop the finest qualities of character.


      Delta Gamma Foundation offers all members lifetime enrichment through educational growth, personal development, and opportunities for philanthropic service in the highest of social responsibility. Delta Lambda Chapter at Mississippi State University has had many of these opportunities to show not only locally, but also nationally, the idea for service that Delta Gamma's hold so high. In May 2004, we gave the Delta Gamma Foundation this years largest gift from any collegiate chapter in the amount of $27,664. This money was raised from Anchor Week, the members selling Jubilation Cheesecakes, magazine subscriptions, and Milk & Cookies. They are excited that half of those funds will be returned to the Mississippi State University Foundation to help support the Delta Gamma Dorothy Garrett Martin Lectureship in Values and Ethics.
      Delta Lambda's volunteer throughout the semester doing work for Service for Sight. They go to the Lutheran Church weekly and comprise braille hymnals. They record books on tape for the children at the Mississippi School for the Blind. In the fall of 2003 they helped with eye testing at Starkville Academy and in the spring of 2004, they donated over 200 pairs of used or new eyeglasses to the local Lion's Club. They purchased a needy child a pair of eyeglasses. Delta Lambda's make Foundation their priority and it shows by all they accomplish in the academic year.
