National History
​​

In 1987, four extraordinary young women from Texas Tech University in Lubbock, TX envisioned something greater for the community. They wanted to create a legacy so special and unlike any other for other women to follow. After recognizing the need to unify and promote leadership amongst Hispanic women at the university, their vision came to life. Kappa Delta Chi was born on April 6th, 1987. Thanks to our founders: Cynthia Garza-Fleitman, Nellie Flores-Ledesma, Irene Montoya, and Melissa Montoya Kappa Delta Chi has grown immensely throughout the years.

Purpose

​

The Purpose of Kappa Delta Chi is to promote the values of Unity, Honesty, Integrity and Leadership among women at colleges and universities.

 

Through numerous service events, sisterhood retreats, and academic and cultural workshops, KDChis learn more about themselves, each other and their surrounding Universities and communities. They blossom into committed leaders, are able to network with our remarkable alumnae, and continue to serve as civic leaders well past their graduation. KDChi is a non-traditional sorority full of diverse members and eager women ready to make a difference in our communities. With sisters, anything is possible.
