Delta Zeta Does Good


The University of Tampa is home to the Delta Beta chapter of Delta Zeta sorority. Theses women are not just looking pretty in their famous pink and green apparel, but they are doing good by helping those in need.  

Four of the Delta Zeta women will be traveling to the Pro Bowl in Miami this weekend. There they will be handing out build-a-bears to those who cannot hear. The philanthropy that Delta Zeta supports is for The Speech and Hearing impaired, which is supported on a national and collegiate level.

Leslie Stephenson, a sophomore in DZ said, “ I am excited for this opportunity to help those in need while also spending time with my sorority sisters.”

The four women were chosen on a volunteer basis. 

The women will depart on Tuesday evening and arrive in Miami. The following morning they will start handing out the teddy bears at 9 a.m. and finish at 4 p.m. 

According to the University of Tampa Greek life website, “Throughout the year, Delta Zeta conducts various philanthropic and social activities that foster leadership, community spirit and sisterhood.”

For the rest of the women who didn't get a chance to head to Miami this week to support their philanthropy, the whole chapter will be part of another event this month.

According to President Kaitlin Hall, “DZ will be handing out Valentine’s Day Cards on February 12th”.

The cards will be free, but there will be a jar for donations that will go to Haiti relief efforts.
