Theta Woman PoemLoyal to the cocoon
From where she comes The Theta Woman rises out of a lavender dawn To proudly bridge the gaps in her world With her butterfly wings. With honesty and courage She lives and loves without conditions Surrendering to her beauty and power She gives and receives freely Remembering her vision, her purpose, her heart. Creator of her own definition She inspires those around her To be proud and selfless To give unselfishly over and over again. Loving herself as she loves others The butterfly transcends Taking others with her in her flight. — Soror Ayodele Carroo, Alpha Chapter, Spring 1998 |
National Philanthropy |
Theta Nu Xi is proud to support the efforts of Girl Up, a campaign of the United Nations Foundation that gives girls the opportunity to channel their energy and compassion to raise awareness and funds for United Nations programs that help some of the world’s hardest-to-reach adolescent girls. With more than 1,300 clubs in 80 countries, Girl Up’s international network is learning leadership skills and the self-confidence to stand up, speak up, and raise up for their peers in the United States and around the world by raising funds for programs that support education, health and safety for girls; by raising awareness of these key issues; and by advocating for solutions that will allow girls everywhere the chance to achieve their dreams.
