Philanthropy
KD supports not just one, but three different Philanthropies. Nationally, we support Prevent Child Abuse America and Girl Scouts, and locally we support Crossing Points and Child Abuse Prevention Services- Tuscaloosa. We hold several events during the year to support each one of these Philanthropies. Each spring, we host a 5K run where we raise money for Child Abuse Prevention. This year, The Shamrock Run happened virtually, but we were able to raise over $64,000! We are so excited for fall semester to be able to host our Crossing Points Prom and work more with our Girl Scouts Troop!
Girl Scouts
Our chapter works closely with Girl Scouts throughout the year. We love having them come to the KD house to sell cookies to members and others in the Tuscaloosa community. We also have had the privilege of taking a Troop to an Alabama gymnastics meet prior to COVID-19 restrictions but we cannot wait to start connecting with the Girl Scouts again! We love you Girl Scouts of North-Central Alabama!

Child Abuse Prevention Services
One of Kappa Delta’s local philanthropies is Child Abuse Prevention Services and we are honored to have the opportunity every spring to raise money for them! Each Spring we raise money by hosting our 5K, The Shamrock Run. The Shamrock Run takes place during our KD Parents Weekend so we are able to invite all of our friends and family to get together to run and raise money. This year we were able to raise $51,509.85 for CAPS!

Crossing Points
Our last philanthropy is Crossing Points. We have these students over to the KD House for dinner and we host a prom for them. Each Spring KD works alongside ATO to host The Crossing Points Prom. This is a night where we all get together for music, dancing, snacks, and fellowship with all our Crossing Points Students! We are so excited to be able to host the prom this Fall.
