Deltas partner with Winston-Salem Prep on international project m. SPECIAL TO THE CHRONICLE For the last three years, the Winston Salem Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. has partnered with Winston-Salem Prep Academy Middle School to bring awareness to international water crises. The students in Janel Sharpe's 8th grade classes learned about and discussed international water crises. On Thursday, April 9, Dr. Jean R. Dominique, a native of Port Au Prince, Haiti, spoke to the classes about the impor tance of maintaining clean and safe water. He explained that in the United States, water is often taken for granted but in many places such as his native land, Haiti, there is a severe water crisis. He further stated that sanitation issues lead to clean water not always being available. Haitians sometimes become chronical ly ill due to the lack of clean water. The students were very attentive and had numerous questions for Dominique. The students have written essays and prepared posters describing the interna tional water crisis. The posters and essays will be judged and winners will be select ed. Delta Sigma Theta Sorority will award prizes to the winners at their 8th grade graduation. Through its International projects, Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Inc. enables Delta women and the community to broad en their knowledge and understanding of nations other than their own and in a small way, assist in the solutions of world prob lems.
