The Hickory Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. was chartered by 13 dynamic professional women on May 15, 1982 by 7th Regional Director Dr. Norma Sermon Boyd. During the past years, Hickory Alumnae has embraced opportunity and cultivated its growing membership to continue to provide services to the citizens of Burke, Caldwell, Catawba and Iredell Counties. Early programs of Hickory Alumnae Chapter included: a summer tutorial program and Operation Santa Claus in collaboration with Brown Penn Recreation Center in Hickory, Delta Teens, Delta PALS, Delta Academy, Delta Gems, voter registration, and scholarship program. In later years Hickory Alumnae has initiated the Sisterhood luncheon program as a signature program for the chapter. Health initiatives, financial initiatives and educational programs continue, even after 30 years, to serve our country.
