Pink Goes Green

The Delta Zeta sorority has 158 chapters in the United States, UK, and Canada. It was founded in 1902 by six founders who chose pink and green as national colors. The rose, diamond, and turtle are symbols of Delta Zeta. I have been a member of the Pi Zeta Chapter at Arizona State University since Fall of 2006. I have been involved through my chapter by being Vice President of Membership Assistant, Judicial Chairwoman, Greek Week Chair, and serving on numerous committees.

As with most Greek organizations we are community service based, Delta Zeta national philanthropies are speech and hearing sciences but in the recent years we have decided to go green! Pink Goes Green is Delta Zeta's commitment to the community and the environment. This website features a blog by Kelley Hunter which features many green topics, similar to mine! The website also features information on how to be environmentally conscious as well as links to other green websites.

My local chapter has supported the green revolution by selling reusable shopping bags. Reusable bags can save 500 plastic bags per year! These bags were printed in dark green and light green with the Pink Goes Logo on the side. This bags are for grocery shopping, visiting the mall, or anytime you need carry a lot of items. We sold these bags at our 2008 Parents Weekend Event; they were also featured at our "Meet the Greeks" table at Greek Week 2009. Profits from the bag were donated to charity and also benefited our local chapter.

If you are a current or alumni member of Delta Zeta interested in going green become a member, take a pledge, or become a project leader! If not a Delta Zeta check out the blog, projects, and news section of the webpage.
