Become Part of a Lifelong Community of Women Educators with Delta Kappa Gamma
Joining The Delta Kappa Gamma Society International means entering a supportive sisterhood of women educators—from classroom teachers and university professors to librarians, administrators, and educational specialists—who share a passion for advancing education together. Even collegiate members who are preparing for careers in education or related fields find a welcoming space to grow and connect.

The true rewards of membership come from what you put in. Our programs create a rich environment for your professional development, sparking thoughtful discussions on current educational challenges and inspiring collective problem-solving. Every chapter crafts its own unique activities tailored to the talents and needs of its members and local communities—with guidance and ideas provided by an international program manual.
Beyond local chapters, enriching experiences await at the state and international levels through conventions, workshops, and conferences held regularly to deepen learning and networking. The Society proudly awards scholarships to members pursuing advanced studies—over 400 educators have benefited—along with study grants offered by many states and chapters.
Through the World Fellowship Fund, Delta Kappa Gamma offers members the rare chance to study abroad, broadening horizons across cultures and educational systems. Since its launch, hundreds of women from dozens of countries have received these life-changing grants.
Our Golden Gift Fund, created to celebrate 50 years of impact, supports leadership seminars, travel grants, special research stipends, and workshops designed to empower members in addressing educational challenges and growing as leaders.
The Society also honors educational authors with the prestigious Educator’s Award, celebrating women whose books inspire innovation and influence the future of education globally.
Additional programs include leadership development funds, emergency aid for members affected by natural disasters, and travel support for international speakers—showcasing our dedication to supporting members at every level.
Stay informed and inspired through our regular newsletters and professional journals, plus state and chapter publications featuring research, stories, and resources created by educators just like you.
Guided by a democratic and transparent governance structure, the Society ensures your voice helps shape the future of the organization at every level—from local chapters to the International Executive Board.
With countless opportunities for growth, leadership, and meaningful impact, Delta Kappa Gamma invites you to join us in advancing education and becoming a lifelong leader for women educators everywhere.
