F
or more than 110 years, the rich traditions
of Delta Delta Delta have made a
significant impact on the lives of Theta
Gamma women at the University of Oklahoma.
Our organization is grounded in the power of
servant leadership and community building, and
our goal is for this project to be grounded in
those principles. Theta Gamma has supported,
lifted, encouraged, celebrated, and challenged
our members to serve beyond themselves.
Building on Excellence at 1611 College will
enable us to update our Tri Delta home to
ensure the next generation of sisters can learn
these same ideals.
Investing in Our Future
Our beloved home at 1611 College, which was
built in 1954 and renovated in the 1980s, must
be renovated and expanded to meet today's
standards. Although the House Corporation and
active membership have worked diligently to
keep the house safe and comfortable, we simply
cannot maintain the house to the necessary
standards indefinitely. This renovation and
expansion will update the common areas while
also meeting the everyday needs of the active
membership.
Our investment in Theta Gamma will yield a
facility that complements our efforts to produce
outstanding members, scholars, philanthropists,
and leaders for years to come. Our goal is to
create a home that will further solidify the
strong ideals of our membership by creating a
space where sisters can live, learn, and work
together toward our shared mission.
The Commitment of Our Sisters
Our campaign committee has been humbled
by the early support of Theta Gamma sisters,
friends, and families over the last year. Early
commitments total over $1.9 million. While this
is an impressive start, we set a lofty goal at the
beginning of this journey to raise $3 million
toward this project.
Our memories of living in the Tri Delta house
are some of the best of our lives, bringing us
friendships that will last a lifetime. We learned
how to support, encourage, and challenge each
other to serve the world beyond ourselves. We
now must work to create a legacy to pass on
to the next generation of strong Theta Gamma
women. We would be honored to have you join
our growing list of generous donors.
Please be on the lookout for further information
on the project, the campaign, and ways in which
you can help.
We thank you, sincerely, for your thoughtful
consideration.
