Founded on February 7, 1990, at UC Berkeley, alpha Kappa Delta Phi International Sorority, Inc. was brought to life by 14 dedicate women who created a thriving space for Asian American women within the Greek community🤍✨ Today, we honor their legacy as the first and only international Asian-interest sorority.

Their names are: Betty Chu, Karin Co, Susan Kim, Nancy Lee, Sherri Leung, Annie Loo, Belinda Ma, Anita Ng, Serene Ngin, Fannie Pon, Josie Sun, Daisy Wu, Jill Yoshimura, and Reina Yuan

As we celebrate 36 beautiful years of sisterhood, we recognize the empowering leaders who have emerged from our community. With over 9,000 sisters worldwide, we remain united by our pillars of sisterhood, leadership, scholarship, service, and Asian awareness ⏳🪽

With love and friendship, always 💫
