'Tis the season to gather with your Delta Gamma sisters for our beloved Holiday Brunch!

Greater KC Delta Gamma Holiday Brunch
Saturday, December 7, 2024 10 a.m. - 12 p.m.
$45 per person Pierpont's at Union Station | The Belvedere Room (2nd Floor)
30 West Pershing Road, Kansas City, MO 64108

Please RSVP by Saturday, November 30, 2024. Three-hour complimentary parking is located in the West Yard Garage, immediately west of Union Station. RSVP online or send your check to Sherri Downing at 5815 W 148th Place, Overland Park, KS 66223. We will collect voluntary cash donations for the Children's Center for the Visually Impaired. CCVI's staff will use these funds to purchase items, such as light-up toys, for their Functional Vision Evaluations kits, which are given to families when they first meet with CCVI. The families find these kits very meaningful. Please consider including a donation with your brunch RSVP!

The Belvedere Room overlooks the beautiful Grand Hall at Union Station, and the Holiday Reflections event will be open after brunch if you want to attend. Holiday Reflections is not included in our DG event. This is a separate $10 ticket that must be purchased in advance. Click HERE to purchase Holiday Reflections tickets.

We need 6-12 volunteers for Christmas in the Park on Wednesday, December 11. Christmas in the Park is a free drive-through Holiday light display with more than a million lights and over 200 animated displays. It runs nightly from November 28 to December 31st at Longview Park. DGs will collect voluntary donations from visitors as they exit the park. Our chapter receives a portion of the donations collected for working on December 11. (We received $1000 last year for our Vision to Do Good fundraising campaign.) You can bring family or friends, aged 16 or older, to help. Please contact Cathy Lemon for more information or sign up HERE.

Event Recap

Doing Good at HappyBottoms

This year, we started Do Good Week off with a bang! On October 9, ten women sorted, bundled, and shrink-wrapped about 8,000 diapers at HappyBottoms, located at 303 W 79th Street, Kansas City. These diapers will go to families all throughout Greater Kansas City. HappyBottoms is KC’s only diaper depot. They are projected to distribute 6 million diapers to those in need in 2024. Area Delta Gammas were especially happy to volunteer at HappyBottoms because the co-directors of this non-profit organization are both Delta Gammas. After our volunteering, some of us went to lunch together at Summit Grill in Waldo. We look forward to another visit to HappyBottoms to prepare more diapers for those in need.

October CCVI Tours

 

This October, alumnae had a chance to learn more about CCVI. The programming team planned 2 informational tours. On Friday October 18, we toured the facility and celebrated “Pumpkin Patch Day” with the students in the Sensory Garden. They were able to get a pumpkin or gourd to take home, as well as pet a pony, duck, or chicken. Alyssa Bird, CCVI Development Manager, gave another tour of the CCVI on Tuesday evening, October 22. Even though students weren’t there, we got to see the Sensory Garden before it got too dark, saw a classroom, Braille room, library, and evaluation room. We also learned about the services CCVI staff provide to low vision children and their families throughout greater KC and beyond.

 

 

Note from Programming Team:

Some Sisters may need transportation assistance. If this is you, or you’d be willing to carpool with a sister or few, please let us know, and we will connect sisters accordingly. Kansas City is constantly evolving, and so are we!

We would love your input! What type of programs are you interested in attending? Are you still interested in having virtual gatherings or do you prefer in-person functions? If you have connections to a venue (club house, meeting space, restaurant, boutique, etc.) speaker, or event you think might be of interest, please let us know. Simply send an email to share your thoughts and ideas. We would love to have helpers throughout the year. The more the merrier! Let's have fun together! If you're interested in helping for a single meeting (such as set-up, greeter, assist with snacks/drinks, nametags, or even clean-up afterwards) or would like to assist on a regular basis, please let us know!

ITB,

Christi Bulit – Kappa ’02
