From the Office of the President

     On behalf of the Columbus Metropolitan Alumnae Chapter (CMAC) of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated, we are excited that you chose to visit our website to learn about our chapter’s history, impactful programming aligned with the National Strategic Plan, and commitment to expanding purposeful community partnerships. Since 1970, CMAC has worked diligently to address the needs of an expanding service area through scholarship, sisterhood, service, and social action. We are proud of the legacy created by our charter members that has continued and expanded over the past 55 years.  

 

     We boldly embrace our responsibility to create sustainable and tailored programming that addresses systemic inequalities and empowers youth and adults to overcome social, political, economic, healthcare, and environmental injustices. Ensuring our alignment with the mission of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated, CMAC creates targeted service initiatives that include:

  1. Economic Development: The Money Moves Investment Series teaches skills to build economic empowerment in high school students. The Janie J. Williams Memorial Scholarship affords students access to institutions of higher learning by helping to remove financial barriers.

  2. Educational Development:  The "Because Period" Hygiene Closet and Peace Place was created to mitigate period poverty and improve psychological wellness. The Delta GEMS and Academy program is a mechanism to empower girls to become the best versions of themselves through embracing their worth, value, and talents.

  3. International Awareness and Involvement: CMAC is committed to raising awareness about HIV/AIDS prevention and intervention resources, advocating for the protection of human rights, and supporting initiatives that increase accessibility and mobility. We proudly support the 7 international sustainability projects that offer economic, educational, and health resources to countries in Africa and co-sponsor an annual  HIV/AIDS Walk.

  4. Physical and Mental Health: CMAC was awarded grant money from  Good Health Wins to increase access to vaccines, provide vaccine education, distribute wellness kits, and implement programming targeted at prevention and early intervention including breast cancer, childhood trauma, and violence.

  5. Social Action: CMAC was awarded a Voter Education & Mobilization Microgrant and met the objectives of increasing poll workers in our service areas, created a targeted media campaign through purchasing billboards and informational posts and reels, partnered with community organizations to host candidate forums, adopted a voting precinct, and conducted voter registration drives.

 

     We welcome opportunities for on-going partnerships and appreciate community support as we continue to "Move Forward with Fortitude."  

​

In grateful service, 

​

Dolores "Deenie" Tarver
