PHILANTHROPY UPDATE W e kicked of our philanthropy semester by volunteering for the St. Jude 5K in Kansas City. It's a blast every year to see people come from all over the KC area to support St. Jude. In the fall we had Sincerely Yours, a letter-writing event where we inform our friends and family about St. Jude's purpose and ask for donations. We also held an online fundraiser called 10K in a Day, and we successfully beat our goal, raising more than $14,000 in 24 hours on February 13. We had the pleasure of connecting with a local St. Jude family, the Hendersons. Their son, Grit, is 2 years old and a St. Jude patient. They live in Lawrence but occasionally travel to Memphis for treatments and appointments. We had Grit's family at the Chapter House for dinner, and his dad, Nolan, spoke to our chapter about how St. Jude had impacted them and made their scary situation a little bit easier. Recently, Grit's scans revealed that he is cancer free, and we are looking forward to hanging out with Grit and hopefully celebrating his good news soon! Unfortunately, our spring Delta Dinner event has been canceled due to COVID-19. This annual pancake dinner event is a ton of fun and a great way to bring the community together. We are working to plan an alternative event this fall. As a result of our fall 2019 events, we raised $52,000 for St. Jude, and we are so proud to be partnered with such an amazing organization.
