Alumnae Division 7 Facebook Page

You can find that page at http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/group.php?gid=116010969088&ref=ts.
National Charity League
At 2009 Convention in Orlando, Kappa Deltas found out about a new partnership between Kappa Delta Sorority and National Charity League. I have attached the memo sent in the August 2009 KD Leader (previously known as the quarterly mailing), but also encourage those of you with daughters in grades 7-12 to check out the organization at www.natinoalcharityleague.org .
Kudos to our KD sisters
Patti Bailey (Sigma Upsilon – Indiana) – Patti and her husband John are Lifetime Board Members of the Arkansas Museum of Discovery. Thank you for all the work that you have put into the Museum to make it such a success. I’m sure I speak for many KDs with small children, when I say AMOD is one of the best places to take children in Central Arkansas! Send your Kudos news to Rachel at centralarkansaskd@hotmail.com

Brunch and Bras
At this brunch, we are going to catch up with each other, and pass out the underwear that our chapter won at convention. We will also have an underwear drive, and give the new undies to Women and Children First, as many families leave home with very little of their personal belongings to leave abusive situations. We hope you can make it out!
