Your Chapter Could be Next!
Nine Iowa chapters now have web sites.  Would you like to join them?  Let others know what a terrific organization Delta Kappa Gamma is!

It only costs $36 per year (plus a one-time setup fee of $15) to create a 10 gig Web site on the Delta Kappa Gamma International server.  That's a bargain!    If you need more space, you can obtain additional 10 gigs for $24 each per year. 

Your website can be hosted by any server and then linked to the Society server as an official "certified" site. There are many good site hosts out there. One of the better ones is www.orgsites.com. OrgSites offers FREE websites, NewsBars and Directory Listings. All you have to do is answer a few questions and begin building your site. OrgSites is for U.S. Nonprofits and noncommercial groups.  It is 100% supported by philanthropic funds designated for the betterment of our communities. They don't advertise or solicit advertising money, therefore, THERE ARE NO ADS TO HOST, so there won't be those annoying advertising pop-ups!  Another quick and easy web design and hosting site is www.weebly.com.  They provide a drag and drop web site editor and free hosting.  No technical skills are needed.   A third option is Google Sites.
They have customizable templates to make web creation easy and free hosting.

You can use your web site for:

If hosted on the International Server, your site will be named according to your state organization and/or chapter: http://deltakappagamma.org-IA-zeta/.

If you need help sending it to the server, contact Karen Dole.  You need to have FTP software on your computer to send it to the server.  Once your site is up on the server, Karen will link to it from the state web site.  You can also apply for a link from the International web site.

Once your site is site up, you should check to make sure it complies with the Delta Kappa Gamma Society International Policy for Use of Electronic Communications.  It is located on the International Web Site in the same place as the forms.
