The charter members were initiated into the sorority under the sponsorship of Epsilon Omega Chapter, Baltimore, MD. After a number of years of very effective community service, the original chapter ceased to function. Years later another group of members expressed an interest in forming a chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. As a tribute to the former chapter, they requested the use of the
original name, Zeta Omega. To fulfill the request, at least one member of the original chapter was required to be a part of the group filing the application. Fortunately, they were able to locate Anna Broadnax who lived in Philadelphia, PA. She was invited to join them and consented. Thus, Zeta Omega Chapter, Wilmington, DE, was reactivated on May 5, 1947. The chapter continued to take an active part in the community life of Wilmington, DE by sponsoring two annual affairs, Fashionetta's Dream (1948), featuring the latest in wearing apparel and a Debutante Ball, a premier social event for high school seniors (1950).
