Looking For a Special Gift for a Delta?

Do you know a Delta who just crossed, or is your friend or sweetheart a soror of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.? Greek paraphernalia and sorority centered gifts are the way to go! However, if you want to get her something special, you may need to think outside of the box - many sorors end up with duplicate gifts because certain items are very popular. So, if you take a little time to learn about what is important in terms of sorority symbolism, you can find unique and creative gifts that will WOW her.

Here are some ideas and resources you can use to find the PERFECT gift for the Delta Girl in YOUR life!

And if YOU are a Delta, get yourself a gift, girl! You deserve it! Your line sisters, too ;-)

22 Elephants - A Necessity for EVERY Delta 

Lots of people collect elephants, but Delta girls take it VERY seriously!

Although the elephant is an un-official symbol of the sorority, it is commonly accepted among members and has a special meaning. When Deltas cross, it is customary for them to receive 22 elephants as a gift, representing the twenty-two founders of the organization. While many Deltas receive more than 22 elephants, it is the custom to have AT LEAST 22 at all times.

Many Deltas receive figurines, which, depending on their quality, can break easily. Furthermore, there are other ways to give an elephant that you may not have considered. Favorite this page to find new and unique ways of giving elephants to your Delta friends!

I have to admit, I don't always get it right!

I find it easier to give thoughtful gifts to women - I don't know what men want :-P

The official sorority flower, the African Violet is an important symbol to Deltas. Deltas often give them to each other as gifts, but non-members rarely see the value in giving gifts centered around this theme.

If you really want to impress a Delta, give her one or more of these African Violet centered gifts - you'll really stand apart from the crowd!
