Philanthropy
Lambda Theta Alpha, Latin Sorority Inc. has many national and local philanthropies. Our National Philanthropy is the Lambda Theta Alpha Outreach Program titled F.U.T.U.R.O., which translates to FUTURE. On the regional and local levels, our areas and chapters dedicate themselves to philanthropic aid of their own choice and thus the sorority as a collective whole contributes to many different people in need.
Women, minorities and children compose the nucleus of most of the philanthropic aid Lambda Theta Alpha focuses on. Through philanthropy, Lambda Theta Alpha hopes to unite people in service with their respective communities while allowing them to realize the importance of sharing problems and understanding their neighbor's concerns.
The Sisters of Lambda Theta Alpha pride themselves on their devotion to the community. Since its inception in 1975, Lambda Theta Alpha has always excelled in community service. Not only do sisters "perform" community service, but they also firmly believe in community activism, going out into the community and motivating others by instilling in them a passion to help others. This is the link, the common bond in unity, that is our passion.
Through our own self-assurance as valuable people in this universe we reach out to others, and many times learn things about ourselves we previously were unaware of in terms of our strengths and weaknesses. As sisters and brothers of humanity we must acknowledge the universal truth that we as a people are only as strong as our weakest link. By empowering ourselves first, by learning our own cultures and where we come from, and by really understanding who we are (past, present, future) we will ALL finally be united.
Our founding mothers did just this over twenty years ago. They were mostly Latina, but because they loved learning and rediscovering their culture, they wanted others of different cultures to join them so they could do the same, and ultimately share their cultures. And for this reason, Lambda Theta Alpha is dedicated to not only one community, but many.
