In 1954, Delta Zeta's Convention body voted to make the cause of speech and hearing our national philanthropy. 

 

Delta Zeta members volunteer many hours for speech and hearing organizations in their communities, such as tutoring children with hearing challenges or spearheading fundraising initiatives.

 

Donations collected assist with speech programs and provide equipment and devices to those with hearing challenges. Funds also support programs aimed at hearing loss prevention.

 

In addition, Delta Zeta has national partnerships focused on speech and hearing-related causes with The Starkey Hearing Foundation, Gallaudet University and the House Research Institute.
