We will be there for you.

HELLO AND WELCOME

TO THE DO GOOD SISTERHOOD OF ETA THETA AT SAINT LOUIS UNIVERSITY!

I am excited to welcome you to the Eta Theta chapter of Delta Gamma's website!

Here, we strive to support one another in sisterhood through the twists and turns of life, and maintain high ideals of friendship, character, and social responsibility.

A Delta Gamma is an individual who holds a deep care for the world around them. They are dedicated to upholding Article II of the Delta Gamma Constitution which encourages us to promote our educational and cultural interests, create a true sense of social responsibility, and develop the best quality of character. In the Eta Theta chapter these are truly lived out in a multitude of ways all while having fun with our sisters. The friendships I have found within this sisterhood are second to none. I have found adventure buddies, friends to study with, shoulders to cry on, coffee dates, and lifelong friends. These friends make college feel like home, and have a special knack for making life's everyday moments fun. From family dinners and board game nights to late night ice cream runs to concerts, these are the moments I will always be thankful for with my sisters.

Our larger community matters a great deal to us, which is why we take time to dedicate to service. Sisters volunteer year-round with Kids Vision for Life giving vision screenings to children who would otherwise not have access to them and the Delta Gamma Center making sure that the visually impaired youth have plenty of opportunities to be KIDS! This only scratches the surface of the service that Delta Gammas do in our local community. On the national level, we join the other Delta Gamma chapters in hosting our own Anchorsplash which fundraises for the Delta Gamma Foundation in our commitment to Service for Sight. Delta Gamma is unique in that our philanthropy was started, and is operated completely through Delta Gamma after a member, who was visually impaired herself, suggested we adopt it. We truly do stand for sisters helping sisters. This dedication to our members sets Delta Gamma apart and is part of why I am so proud to call myself a Delta Gamma woman.

In my role as president, I am incredibly lucky to work with a team of individuals who are overwhelmingly supportive and strong in their friendship and love. I can not thank them enough for giving me the grace and encouragement that they do. They are my biggest cheerleaders and besties! The memories I have made during my time in Delta Gamma are priceless to me. As I go into my senior year, I realize that I am rounding out my lasts, which reminds me to dance a little harder at every date dash, scream a little louder during each chant, and hug each of my sisters a little tighter. I am forever grateful for every gift that Delta Gamma has given me and continue to be grateful for this lovely, beautiful, warm, and encouraging home I have in DG.

L+ITB,

Jibby Bellante

2023-2024 president - Eta Theta Chapter
