Philanthropy Events

DG Diner (April 2022): During our spring semester, we host our annual DG Diner. We are able to raise money that will go to support the cause of vision loss as well as Service for Sight, Delta Gamma's philanthropy. Raffle prizes are available to those who purchase a raffle ticket prior to the event. We are looking forward to being able to host this event in-person this spring and to be even more successful in our fundraising efforts!

Vision Walk (September 2021): Our annual volunteering at the Minneapolis Vision Walk will look a little different this year. Instead, we will be hosting our own DG Vision Walk on September 19th. We will have alumni paired with a small group of about 8 DG's and each team will be walking a 5K. This will be a great bonding experience for our chapter while also raising money to support the Minneapolis Vision Walk!

Holiday Cards & Letters for Veterans (year round): The VA hospital has partnered with us to have our chapter provide holiday cards for the patients at the Minneapolis hospital! These cards have provided some enlightenment to the patients, especially during the pandemic when visitors were not allowed. 

Zoom Bingo & Scattergories (year round): During the COVID-19 pandemic, we participated in weekly bingo and scattergories games with Vision Loss Resources! The VLR clients were able to engage with us virtually, which wasn't what we had all hoped for, but the clients still enjoyed these events! We look forward to being able to continue virtual and in-person events with VLR this year.
