When Delta Gamma’s Founders created a small club for mutual helpfulness almost 140 years ago, these amazing ladies understood the important notion of friendship & all that it stood for. Moreover, friendship & doing good were the cornerstone of the Fraternity’s founding; even today, these things remain a great source of pride for Delta Gamma as much as they tell others who DG is, what DG does & what the Fraternity is all about!!
Since 1873, Delta Gamma’s Oath of Friendship has remained unaltered. Delta Gamma’s open motto (“Do Good”) continues to endure; its meaning & significance have lost none of its staying power & relevance. If that’s not enough, these very words continue to encourage DeeGees to show how their actions impact the good of others.
For Delta Gamma, doing good is also about upholding the Fraternity’s high values, standards & expectations. It’s about demonstrating high ideals of friendship. It’s raising the bar high in both the great & little things that DeeGees do on campus & in their communities. It’s truly living the Fraternity’s open motto on a daily basis!!
Along with friendship, doing good is & always been at the heart of defining who Delta Gamma is; also, it’s one of the reasons why DG is such an amazing women’s Fraternity today!!
