HOW TO RECLAIM
Reclamation Discount Period: July 1 - September 30
While reclamation can happen at any time of the year, we dedicate this period (July 1 – September 30) specifically to welcoming our Sorors back home. Our theme is “Once A Zeta, Always A Zeta: Reclamation, The Time is Now!” We understand that life happens, and sometimes Sorors may need to step away from our beloved Sisterhood. However, we believe that our mutual love for each other and our illustrious organization is key to your return. No matter how long you’ve been away, “The Time is Now” to come back home! For those Sorors active in the Sisterhood, please reach out to those you know are inactive and encourage them on their journey back. Let them know that the Sisterhood is not complete without them: Individually, we are unique, but together, we are complete!
