Our longtime partner for this event is the Bellevue Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta, which was founded on Jan. 13, 1913, by 22 women at Howard University, a historically Black college. The sorority's community legacy continues into the present as the Bellevue Alumnae Chapter members stay committed to making our world a more equitable and just place to live.
