About Us
The Atlanta Themis Alumnae Chapter was chartered on April 1,
1968. Since that time, the Chapter has grown in size and success. Atlanta
Themis received recognition from National Council at the 2008 and 2010
Conventions. We came home with the crown chapter award and were honored with
silver, Alumnae Service Award (2nd runner-up) again. This award is one of the
highest awards presented to an alumnae chapter. Years of hard work, dedicated
members, creative programming, and commitment to service has continued to pay
off.
Group Dynamics:
We are a group of approximately forty members, which represent over fifteen
collegiate chapters. The majority of our members are in their 20s and 30s, but
we range from recent college graduates to well-seasoned ZTAs who have seen and
done it all.
Meeting Info:
We hold meetings from September through June on the second Thursday of each
month at 7:00pm for Themis Thursday. We generally meet in the Buckhead or
Perimeter area.
Service to the Community:
Atlanta Themis plans monthly service projects for the chapter which benefit
various segments of our city. Some of the projects we have planned in the past
include collection of school and media supplies, canned food drive, adopting a
family during Christmas, delivering valentines to the elderly, Race for the
Cure, Atlanta Homeless Pets, and Dress for Success.
Chapter Correspondence:
We send out a newsletter each month which provides all of the details for
the upcoming meeting, as well as information on other chapter activities and
updates on our fraternity nationwide. In addition to the newsletter, an E-vite
(via e-mail) is sent out before each meeting to serve as a reminder of the
upcoming event. Please also look for us on facebook as all of our up-to-date
information can be found there.
Other Activities:
In addition to our monthly meetings and service activities, Atlanta Themis
plans fundraising events, such as Scoop Pink and shopping events, to raise
money for the ZTA Foundation. We also plan other Crown Connection social and
service activities outside of our monthly meetings and encourage involvement
with our local collegiate chapters: Georgia Institute of Technology and
Georgia State University.
National Philanthropy:
Atlanta Themis supports Zeta Tau Alpha Foundation through sponsorship and
fundraising. We host many events around the city to support the Atlanta area,
breast cancer, and Susan G. Komen.
