Delta Gamma Pay Your Per Capita Dues

Doing Good & Volunteer Opportunities

Do your volunteer in your community? Please report your service hours!

Delta Gamma wants to know how our members give back to their community! This includes non-profit organizations or service groups where you volunteer your time such as PTA, Harvesters, Habitat for Humanity and more. It does not have to be limited to “Service for Sight” service hours. Anyone can report their hours-officers as well as non-officers. Our alumnae chapter is comprised of many civic minded, service-oriented women, so let’s let EO know!

The alumnae chapter president is responsible for submitting hours to Executive Office two times per year. To make reporting easier for members, Cathy Lemon would like your hours submitted quarterly. Since Do Good week was Sept 3-9, lots of you should have hours to report this October.

Submit your July, August and September service hours by October 31 to president@kcdg.org.

 


 

Delta Gamma "Member of Impact" Program

The “Member of Impact” recognition program is a tribute to the remarkable women who embrace the Fraternity's values and amplify them through their contributions. By spotlighting these outstanding individuals, Delta Gamma will inspire others to follow them, creating a ripple effect of positive change that extends far beyond the boundaries of the sorority itself.

The recognition is meant to honor people who go above and beyond but might not have the more typical Delta Gamma experience that is necessary to receive one of our Individual Alumnae Awards (Hope, Cable, Shield, etc.). Additionally, this opportunity is open to all members, not just alumnae.

Here are a few examples of members who might receive the recognition:

  • A member who raises guide dogs to serve local visually impaired community members
  • A member who received a lifetime achievement award or other type of larger award for career contributions
  • A member who has a unique hobby or business that creates more good in the world

The Member of Impact recognition program is open to all collegians and alumnae in good standing. Members may nominate themselves or another deserving member. Though the nomination form will never close, and there is no deadline to nominate/apply, a volunteer committee will review applications quarterly. Members chosen for the program will be featured across Delta Gamma’s communication channels, including the ANCHORA, blog posts, newsletters, social media posts, etc.

Nominate someone or yourself as a Member of Impact today using this link: https://forms.deltagamma.org/232055426137855

CCVI Sighted Peer Availability

Do you have a loved one looking for a preschool? They might be eligible to attend CCVI as a sighted peer. Enroll in an inclusive environment to promote belonging, friendships, understanding and acceptance of other that are different. Sighted Peer students learn confidence, empathy, and school readiness skills while supporting the educational needs of their peers by being a leader and a friend. With affordable pricing and a low student to teacher ratio, this is a viable option for kindergarten readiness. Learn more by visiting the website at www.ccvi.org/ccvisightedpeerprogram
