Last night alumnae came out to support the Alpha Pi Chapter in their 3rd annual Deepher Dude pageant. The event raised over $2600 for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and DPhiE alumnae were proud to be a part of it!
The CT Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Chapter hosted an extremely successful Jeans for Genes Gala event last week where fashion and philanthropy merged to raise funds for CF. The Alumnae Association not only had a member on the planning committee but also made two donations for raffle prizes in hopes of helping to raise funds. We are excited to announce that initial results show that the event raised almost $30,000!!! Congratulations CT CFF!
This past weekend, members of the CT Alumnae Association teamed up with the CT Cystic Fibrosis Foundation to participate in the Great Strides Walk. Not only was the day filled with fun, food, raffles and amazing weather, but the Association was part of an amazing feat; the walk raised almost $55,000!!!
Friday May 7th kicked off SCSU's annual Relay for Life Event and the CT Alumnae Association was there to support. The event has become a large event on Southern's campus, with students and families camping out at the football field and walking the track all night to help raise money to find a cure for cancer.
"Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter."
- Martin Luther King, Jr Today, on Martin Luther King Day, DPhiE alumnae collected nonperishable goods, gently used clothing, toiletries and personal items to donate to the people of Haiti. Realizing how lucky everyone in our country is, the sisters wanted to give back and utilize all that we are fortunate enough to have to help those that are left with nothing due to the earthquake in Haiti. Want to donate? Please contact President Kaitlyn Fenner. On Sunday, October 25th the CT Alumnae Association participated in the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk in New Haven, CT. As a team, the woman donated over $370.00 to breast cancer research!! |
