Tri Delta was founded by women, for women, in 1888 at Boston University when our Founders bravely created a new organization that would “think more of a woman’s inner character than her outward appearance.” Their vision has grown into the dynamic women’s organization we know today.
Today, Tri Delta is a network of nearly 250,000 women, and we are committed to lifelong learning through educational initiatives, transformational programming and relevant personal and professional development.
From supporting Tri Delta’s Foundation—which empowers collegiate and alumnae members through transformational programs, scholarships and emergency financial support—to supporting the life-saving mission of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and local children’s cancer charities, Tri Deltas are passionate about serving others.
The South Bay Alumnae Chapter of Delta Delta Delta is a local alumnae group of Tri Deltas initiated nationwide. We come together for sisterhood, networking, and philanthropy, especially for alumnae and local organizations. The mission of alumnae chapters is to reaffirm the Purpose of Delta Delta Delta and exemplify her high ideals.
Most of our members live or work in the South Bay area of southern California from El Segundo to San Pedro, including Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, Palos Verdes, Hawthorne, Torrance, etc.
HISTORY
The Manhattan Beach Alliance was founded on October 01, 1951, and later changed its name in 1957 to the South Bay Alumnae Chapter to better reflect the representative region. We celebrated our Golden Anniversary in October of 2001. We are looking forward to our Diamond Anniversary in 2026!
