Kappa Delta Shamrock Week

Kappa Delta had their annual Shamrock Week February 28^th-March 2^nd.  During this week, they raised a total of $3,545 where 80% of these proceeds went to the Cache Child and Family Support Center and 20% went to Prevent Child Abuse America. The Cache Child and Family Support Center provides a facility that offers tools and support services to help parents in the community successfully raise their children. Prevent Child Abuse America builds awareness, by providing education and inspiring people to get involved in the effort to prevent the abuse and neglect of the nation's children. Throughout the week they helped raise awareness of these causes at the events.

     Kappa Delta started off the week on Thursday with their Pancakes and Pinwheels breakfast which was on the Taggart Student Center Patio. They made pancakes and sold them with hot chocolate and a pinwheel for $5. The ladies continued this on Friday as well.They chose to sell pinwheels because they are the new symbol for Prevent Child Abuse America and they stand as an uplifting reminder of childhood and the bright futures all children deserve.
