In 1893, ten young women at Lombard College in Galesburg, Illinois, shared a vision and a dream of a national organization dedicated to the personal growth of women. Their dream became Alpha Xi Delta, one of the oldest sororities in the United States.

The timeless ideals envisioned by Alpha Xi DeltaÍs Founders remain constant throughout the years, inspiring pride in each member to pursue individual excellence. Now a national fraternity with more than 150,000 initiated members, our Fraternity is a progressive organization with college chapters and alumnae associations throughout the United States.

Alpha Xi DeltaÍs vision is to inspire women to realize their potential by providing opportunities for our members to grow in leadership, knowledge, service and Sisterhood.
