Philanthropy
Community and Service are very important to any organization. This is why Iota Delta takes pride in giving back to both the community at large and our home at the University of La Verne. Community is one of our seven values and in our eighteen-year history we have been able to contribute to many different causes. Our Founding Mothers began volunteering and this tradition and involvement still continues today.
Throughout the years of our sorority's existence, Iota Delta has been involved with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, The Clothesline Project, The Latex or No Sex Campaign, The Aids Walk and many other philanthropic projects.
