Project ACE

ACE stands for Alumnae Collegiate Exchange. Project ACE was developed to bridge the gap between collegiate and alumnae sorors, to implement a vision of mentorship and to increase collegiate involvement within the region. It was their hope that chapters throughout the organization would embrace Project ACE and the spirit in which it was given. They believed that providing a mentorship program within the organization was essential to continue to strengthen the bonds that will only fortify Delta’s existence.

• Foster a sisterly relationship between collegiate and alumnae sorors and chapters
• Smooth transition from the collegiate to alumnae chapter
• Career exploration opportunities for collegiate sorors
• Build lasting relationships among collegiate and alumnae sorors
