About Us

Alpha Delta Pi is proud to be the first secret society exclusively for women. Founded on May 15, 1851, at Wesleyan Female College in Macon, Georgia, our sorority is rich with tradition and sisterhood. Alpha Delta Pi sisters strive for excellence in philanthropy, academic performance, and campus leadership. In keeping with our motto, We Live for Each Other, our members have found a place for support, shared values, and personal development. Opportunities abound for the sisters of Alpha Delta Pi, and we look forward to sharing them with you.

Alpha Delta Pi holds four core values that make up the four points of our diamond, instilled so both collegiate and alumnae sisters can always share our values of sisterhood, service, character, and knowledge.

Sisterhood: We believe in the power of sisterhood among women with shared values and diverse experiences. We believe our sisterhood is strongest when we cultivate a sense of belonging, loyalty, and connection in all members.

Service: Giving back to others through time, talent, and treasure is a longstanding Alpha Delta Pi tradition. We encourage our members to exhibit generosity and offer support in their communities through in-person acts of service, highlighting important issues, and philanthropic fundraising.

Character: Our founders recognized the importance of steadfast character in members who consistently displayed honesty, reliability, dignity, and respect for others. Alpha Delta Pi members lead with integrity and authenticity in all we do.

Knowledge: Alpha Delta Pi’s vision declares we are a sisterhood dedicated to lifelong personal growth and friendship. Our members are constantly seeking knowledge and learning in all forms—from formalized degrees to independent study to self-reflection.
