Old Dominion Alumnae Club of Alpha Gamma Delta

  Monday, March 3, 2014 Fellowship, leadership and a lifelong commitment to community service are the daily themes in the lives of sorority women — from our college members to alumnae. On Monday, March 3, these women — who number in the millions — will celebrate International Badge Day during National Women’s History Month. On that day, all of us will honor our separate and distinct Greek-letter affiliations by wearing our badges or letters. It’s a day set aside to acknowledge successful women around the globe, whether they are U.S. senators or university freshmen working for humanitarian aid in far-away continents. The National Panhellenic Conference, one of the largest and oldest women’s organizations in the world, is not alone in celebrating and acknowledging all that women do.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the University of Oklahoma Alpha Gamma Delta whose Chapter House caught on fire the night of January 14th. If you would like to support the sisters in their recovery efforts, please donate below: Update! Foundation Announces New Emergency Disaster Relief Fund Last week we received one of the most frightening Fraternity calls we can ever receive. “There’s been a fire at the Upsilon (University of Oklahoma) Chapter house.” The thankful news - everyone is safe. The hard news – the chapter house is uninhabitable for the rest of the school year. Local advisors were onsite and lent support to the campus administrators who were scrambling to find a place for 61 women to spend the night. And there were other basic needs to consider: food, clothing, toothbrushes, school supplies and books …..the basic needs that are so easy to take for granted. In response, the Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation has established a new Disaster Relief Fund to help provide im
