Hello Alumni of Kappa Alpha Theta!!
My name is Mady West and I am the chief external affairs officer, along with Brooke Benson our Alumni Relations Director! We are so very excited for our modified version of Founder’s Day this year. Although it will look a little different with the pandemic, we are still doing everything we can to make this day special for you guys!
We wanted to send out an email to share our plan for this day. We would love for anyone who wants to send in memories and pictures that remind you of how amazing theta is to be shared with the girls as well as to be posted on our social media platforms to show how amazing our sisterhood holds! We also wanted to have a zoom call with whomever wanted to join with some of the girls to have you all share stories from your time here at UIUC and for the girls to ask questions! The link and time will be attached at the bottom.
Feel free to reach out with any questions, concerns, or even advice on things we could possibly do! I am sad we aren’t able to have our annual brunch, however, this zoom could be a great way to keep in touch with all of you!
Here’s a little message from our president!!
Hi everyone, My name is Hannah and I am the 2021 president for the delta chapter. I would have loved to be able to welcome you in person this year, but as we all know this year has been out of the usual. To bring light to our year, I wanted to share some of the amazing accomplishments and exciting things that have occurred in our chapter.
Over the fall semester we did a virtual fundraiser that raised over $15,000! Along with a fundraising opportunity within the delta chapter by playing virtual games among each other, which raised $2,000 for C.A.S.A!
This years recruitment was a success, all thanks to our Recruitment Director for making rush work virtual. I will say it was different but the house did an amazing job supporting one another when technology was not on our side. We welcomed 40 New members into the Delta chapter! We had some exciting sisterhoods throughout this year, making it to Curtis Apple Orchard in the fall, which seems to be everyone favorite. We had a few virtual ones, we did a virtual shopping sisterhood. The store showed us a bunch of clothes on Zoom and we had the opportunity to purchase any of their website , having 20% of our purchase go to Champaign C.A.S.A! It was fun to get creative with sisterhoods and to see that the chapter was still so willing to spend time together even through zoom!
We have some incredible seniors this year that many have landed jobs that they are very excited to begin! We have some moving all the way to New York and others going to the amazing Windy City. Our seniors have been great to our house and we are so excited for their new lives to begin.
We are excited to hear about all your amazing experiences and be able to share that with our house. I am very exited to see those who can attend the zoom and be able to learn more about what Theta was to you all!
With love,
Hannah Skelton
Please send in your memories and pictures before the 26th of January so I can put something together to share during the zoom meeting!
