Alphapointe Won An award!
On May 18th, the Kansas City chapter of Nonprofit Connect will be awarding Alphapointe the "Stronger Together" Award for its work with sister organization, Rightfully Sewn! We share in this celebration with them. Alphapointe Foundation held the annual Boots and Pearls in late February. Several Delta Gammas attended. Beth Kelloff and Kathy Henricksen were sponsors at the event. Over $150,000 was raised for Alphapointe programs. Thank you to those who attended and participated, it was good to see you there! If you are interested in helping Alphapointe with their mission, please contact Beth Kelloff.
Alphapointe Support
Alphapointe has been in the news lately. They especially need us to be their advocates at this time. We have been a part of this organizations from early days. We continue to be part of volunteering and fundraising for Alphapointe. You can see more about our efforts in supporting Alphpointe in the press and in the president's message. We must continue to support our local philanthropies, Alphapointe and CCVI. They are part of our KCDG legacy.
