About the NCAC of KD
The Nation’s Capital Alumnae Chapter was founded in September
2009. We are a multi-generational group of women from all
walks of
life and all chapters of Kappa Delta. Several of our members are right
out of college, others are just starting families, while others are
watching their own children begin college. Whatever stage you are in, the Nation’s Capital Alumnae Chapter of Kappa Delta offers a great opportunity to make new and lasting friendships. We have several events planned for the coming year, as well as opportunities to support our local and national philanthropies. So, please join the fun and help us make great things happen!
