Calling all Delta’s!! oo-oop, oo-oop, oo-oop !!

So one of my co-workers is a Delta and she represents it well. (Delta Sigma Theta Sorority was founded on January 13, 1913 by twenty-two collegiate women at Howard University. These students wanted to use their collective strength to promote academic excellence and to provide assistance to persons in need.) She is one our trainers and is one of the best leaders and motivators in our training department, I couldn’t say enough about her.  She helped us start our Toastmasters Charter at my job. She is getting married in the next several months and I found the perfect gift for her to give her guests. “Lucky Elephant” Antique Ivory-Finish Tea Light Holder.

 “The ELEPHANT symbolizes strength and determination. The uplifted trunk represents high goals. The right foot forward represents forward movement.  Delta’s collect elephants in the forms of jewelry, stuffed animals, statues, or just about anything you can name. Many Deltas collect elephants because one of our founding sorors loved to do just that. When she passed away her collection of elephants was donated to the Grand Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., where they are on display in our archives. Today most Deltas collect elephants in her honor.”

A Woman of love, peace, and happiness With a passionate, burning dream To become one of the women Who wears the Crimson and Cream Her heart, like the elephant Is as strong as can be While, like the pyramid, she has three sides One side for them, one side for you, and always one side for me
