Zeta Tau Alpha

Since Zeta Tau Alpha's founding in 1898 at Longwood College in Farmville, Virginia, it has provided the opportunity of membership to over 158,000 young women.

The mission of Zeta Tau Alpha is "to make a difference in the lives of its members by developing the potential of each individual through visionary programming which emphasizes leadership development, service to others, academic success and continued personal growth for women with a commitment to friendship and future based on the values and traditions of our past." The ZTA mission statement, creed, ritual, and open motto "Seek the Noblest" make the values of sisterhood and service strong throughout a lifetime membership in Zeta Tau Alpha.

Zeta Tau Alpha philanthropy projects include participation in Race for the Cure, "Don't Be a Fool" Campaign in April to promote Breast Cancer Awareness, handing out pink ribbons in October for Breast Cancer Awareness month, and "Berry Bash" ZTA's annual Philanthropy event, where fraternities and sororities participate in various events to raise money for philanthropy. Zeta Tau Alpha also volunteers at local service organizations to help with whatever is needed each semester, along with the Christmas Adopt-A-Family program.
