Oxford, Ohio — January 23, 2026 — Delta Zeta is delighted to introduce the undergraduate members selected for the 2026 National Headquarters Corporate Internship Program. Each year, this program brings together creative, dedicated and values-driven Delta Zeta women to support Delta Zeta’s mission, vision and strategic priorities. The program is designed to strengthen professional skills, expand industry knowledge, and provide a better understanding of how a premier national women’s organization operates to prepare participants for next steps in their careers.  

Chosen from a talented pool of applicants, internship participants will spend the upcoming year contributing their skills, learning from Delta Zeta professional staff and traveling to events such as the Leader Summit, Tani Austin Ignite the Flame Philanthropy Summit, the Norma Minch Andrisek Leadership Conference and Everlasting sisterhood events.

This year’s internship class will support several high-impact areas across the organization. Development and Engagement interns will work closely with the Delta Zeta Foundation to strengthen donor relationships, assist with event planning and elevate the Empower the Woman brand. Interns in Global Philanthropy will focus on supporting our philanthropic partners through program coordination, service initiatives and fundraising efforts. Marketing and Communications interns will be part of content creation, marketing and brand messaging efforts across digital and print channels. Their work will help strengthen Delta Zeta’s voice and broaden awareness of member resources, philanthropy initiatives, events, awards and achievements.
