Over time, gifts add up to a lasting legacy, and the Foundation celebrates that journey through its Lifetime Giving Societies. Here’s a look at the special pieces that recognize sisters who have reached each level.
Members of The 1898 Society ($10,000-$24,999 cumulative giving) receive a gold lapel pin featuring ZTA’s founding year, 1898.

Those who join The Creed Society ($25,000-$49,999 cumulative giving) receive a cuff with five white violets, each featuring a turquoise-colored stone in the center.

Members of The Sword and Shield Society ($50,000-$74,999 cumulative giving) receive a beautiful jewelry box, a special place to keep pieces that are meaningful to them.

Members of The Crest Society ($75,000-$99,999 cumulative giving) receive a necklace featuring the ZTA Crest. It’s a piece they can wear as a reminder of the sisterhood they carry with them for life.

At The Founders Society level ($100,000+ cumulative giving), donors receive a replica of Second Grand President Bruce Houston Davis’ gold-and-diamond signet, either as a ring or a necklace. The original ring was presented to Mrs. Davis by the Fraternity when she retired from Grand Chapter in 1908 and is now part of the Historical and Educational Center’s permanent collection.

The most meaningful pieces are the ones that tell a story. For Zetas, that story is one of sisterhood, tradition, and a commitment to something bigger than ourselves.
The jewelry recognized through the ZTA Foundation’s giving societies is a beautiful reminder of that legacy, but the greatest gift is what those contributions make possible for generations of Zetas.
