Through community service and awareness
efforts, there's no doubt that Alpha Gams are impacting the world.
Guided by the Purpose, our members feel a deep connection to civic
involvement and are compelled to play an active role in our diverse
society. Alpha Gamma Delta's chosen philanthropic focus is diabetes
awareness and education, and members are encouraged to engage in
community service that promotes this worthy cause. Diabetes 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 Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation provides grants that support
members and other individuals living with diabetes. Financial support is
also offered to members in emergency situations. Volunteer and
leadership training opportunities are provided through Foundation
funding as well. Overall, the Foundation impacts and enriches our
communities by providing essential support for education, philanthropy
and leadership.
On the local level, our collegiate chapters and alumnae groups
diligently carry out their own community-based philanthropy events and
activities. Some groups focus on diabetes research and prevention, while
others focus on a different need in their local community. Together,
just as in years past, we continue to inspire the woman and impact the
world in the communities in which we live.
