Alpha Delta Pi  was founded on May 15, 1851 at Wesleyan Female College in Macon, Georgia. It was first named the  Adelphean Society, a secret society focused on fellowship and scholarship for women. Alpha Delta Pi was the first all female secret society. The sorority was founded on the principles of scholarship, leadership, service to others, and sisterhood. These principles still guide the policies and programs of the sorority today. Alpha Delta Pi’s philantrophy is “The Ronald McDonald House Foundation”. At the start of 2017, “The Max Gruver Foundation” and ADPI teamed up to create a “Stop Hazing” campaign after the devastating loss of Max Gruver.
