THE FARWEST REGION
Since
inception, the Farwest Region has
meaningfully contributed to the growth,
leadership and vitality of Delta Sigma Theta
Sorority, Incorporated beginning with the
chartering of the first Farwest chapter at
the University of California at Berkeley in
1921. Affectionately known as the
Fabulous Farwest, the region is now
comprised of nearly 90 chapters located in
Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Idaho,
Nevada, Oregon, Utah and Washington; as well
as international chapters in Japan (Okinawa
and Tokyo) and the Republic of Korea
(Seoul).
The Farwest
Region is extremely proud to have had
Founder Bertha Pitts Campbell as a
member of our Region. She said, "May
the heritage of long years of service to
mankind be an inspiration for a more
effective future. Hold to those gifts that
have helped keep us moving through the
decades of time...courage to
lead...commitment to service...wisdom to
hope." (Excerpt from greeting in
Tacoma, WA 1988)
