River Parishes Alumnae Chapter

"Without community service, we would not have a strong quality of life. It's important to the person who serves as well as the recipient. It's the way in which we ourselves grow and develop. We've got to work to save our children and do it with full respect for the fact that if we do not, no one else is going to do it."

Dorothy I. Height

10th National President of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. 

Greetings,

​

Our chapter officers and members welcome you to the home of the River Parishes Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. I’m humbled to serve as the president for the 2025-2027 biennial!  River Parishes Alumnae is committed to advancing the ideas of our sorority through the implementation of programs aligned with the sorority’s National Five Point Programmatic Thrust which includes Economic Development, Educational Development, Physical and Mental Health, Political Awareness and Involvement, and International Awareness and Involvement. 

Our chapter of over eighty members have served our community for the past twelve years with a servant heart, fortitude, and dedication, but for some this may be your first introduction to us. Who are we? River Parishes Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated is an organization of impactful, trailblazing women with a vested interest in the empowerment, growth, and well-being of the St. Charles, St. James, and St. John Communities.  We are on a mission to be the premier non-profit organization known for transformation and impact in the River Parishes community.  

River Parishes Alumnae is a nationally recognized chapter for our work in Social Action; regionally for Program Planning and Development,  Membership Services, and Arts & Letters. The accomplishments would be few without our community partners and community involvement.  With these recognitions, we realize “From everyone to whom much has been given, much will be required; and to whom they entrust much, of him they will ask all the more” (Luke 12:48).  We strive to enhance community experiences through impactful programing, education and continued service, we appreciate your continued support. 

With a servant heart,

Sheena Diggs,

President, River Parishes Alumnae Chapter
