The Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation provides grants that support members and other individuals living with diabetes. As a part of the diabetes initiative, the Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation encourages sisters to engage in community service that promotes diabetes awareness and education. Through the Foundation, Alpha Gamma Deltas are awarded scholarships, financial support is offered to members in emergency situations and volunteer and leadership training opportunities are provided. Overall, the Foundation impacts and enriches our communities by providing essential support for education, philanthropy and leadership.
As the second line in our Purpose states, the health and wellbeing of our sisters has always been a primary concern in Alpha Gamma Delta. Diabetes, our chosen philanthropic focus, continues to affect our members and their friends, families and acquaintances at an astounding rate, and as a sisterhood, we have the unique opportunity to look to each other for support and education.
The Fraternity's philanthropy campaign, Defeat Diabetes One Step at a Time, seeks to do just that. Initially, the focus of the campaign will be on our sisters and their families. We'll be sharing information, resources and support so that every sister can Defeat Diabetes One Step at a Time.
A Philanthropy Committee has been assembled with members who have expertise in dietetics, exercise/fitness, marketing, event planning, nutrition and wellness. These committee members will guide the campaign, but each sister will be integral in its overall success. Take the opportunity to take steps toward healthier living for yourself and your family!
