Delta Phi Epsilon is celebrating our centennial on March 17. The sorority took a survey a few years ago to see how members wanted to celebrate. The overwhelming feedback was that they wanted local centennial celebrations with fellow sisters and alumnae. To help facilitate this, IHQ put together a centennial celebration guide and some themed items (balloons, paper products, banners, etc) into a kit. This was kicked off at our 2016 convention. We are providing further event planning training to help assist with centennial celebration plannings at our regional undergraduate conferences this year. Delta Phi Epsilon also partnered with Member Planet to help provide some easy web templates and communication tools for each undergraduate and alumnae chapter. All chapters (alum and collegiate) are encouraged to hold a local centennial celebration in 2017. IHQ is helping us register and promote these events so help get the word out to alumnae who might not be connected to a chapter. Delta Phi Epsilon IHQ wants to really encourage chapters to realize these celebrations can be anytime throughout 2017 and don't have to be huge, formal affairs. IHQ also started a campaign at our 2016 convention called "Each One Reach One" to encourage each individual sister to reach out and reconnect with another sister to help re-engage them with the organization.
