Happy Founders Day!!

Dear KD Sisters,

I wanted to take a minute to send you all a quick note to say HAPPY FOUNDERS DAY!! This year marks the 115th anniversary of Kappa Delta Sorority!!

“Founders’ Day is an anniversary beloved by all who form a part of the circle of Kappa Delta. It is on this special day that we all look backward in remembrance, recalling the joys brought into our lives through our friendships with sisters in Kappa Delta and the sense of purpose our sorority has added to our days.

While October 23^rdof each year is designated “Founders Day” in commemoration of that day in 1897, in reality, we sisters pay homage to our founding every day of our lives. The principles of honor, truth and beauty are a part of our daily living. Kappa Delta is indeed a way of life based upon the teachings and idealism of our founders.

Because Kappa Delta was founded on truth and love and Christian beliefs, it has influenced our thoughts and actions from the day of pledging. Kappa Delta has come to be a part of our feeling as well as our thoughts– her truth known not only by our minds, but forever lodged within our hearts. The high ideals of sisterly love for one another and love of those without our circle make Kappa Delta a sorority based upon a powerful unity.

Our concern for others is demonstrated through gifts presented by national Kappa Delta to Children’s Hospital of Richmond at VCU and Prevent Child Abuse America in commemoration of our founding. These gifts are made possible through the caring and generosity of sisters throughout our nation, and it is but a small, small part of the service to others by our sisters in Kappa Delta.

On this October day, as we celebrate the founding of our sorority, may we regard Kappa Deltas everywhere with respect, love and affection, combined with humility and an honest desire to be to all a sister in spirit and in truth.”

I hope you will take a minute and call a KD sister to reconnect; attend our Founders' Day event tomorrow, decide to join our Louisville Area Alumnae Chapter, or give KD a present and donate to the Foundation.

Thank you for your sisterhood!!

2012-2013 KDAC Year and Membership Drive

Dear KD Sisters,

Well here we are starting another year....the 2012-2013 KDAC Year is upon us and the new board has lots of energy, ideas and dedication to making the Louisville Area Kappa Delta Alumnae Chapter the best it can be but they need your help.  Whether you are from Louisville or a transplant we want to invite you to join the Louisville KDAC - meet KD's from all across the country, learn more about the Louisville, volunteer and donate to Community and so much more!!  The Louisville KDAC was established in January of 1912 and is celebrating it's 100th year so lets make this the biggest best year EVER!!

A few wonderful reason to get involved!!

Meet new people! Whether you're new to town, or you're just looking to expand your group of friends, what better way to meet people that you already have something in common with? Learn more about Louisville! We'll do different events around the city to help you get better acquainted with the different neighborhoods, restaurants and other great secrets about our city!Give back to the community! We recognize that there are many causes that our members feel strongly about. We will have volunteer opportunities throughout the year to allow our members an outlet to be philanthropic! Please contact us with your ideas!!Stay involved in Kappa Delta! An alumnae chapter is a great way to keep your ties to KD strong! Were you a Shamrock chair, a SET leader, or a recruitment chair? Or do you just want to socialize with other sisters - without the mandatory chapter meetings? An alumnae chapter is a great place to do that! If you're interested in serving Kappa Delta on our executive board, we'd love to have you and your ideas!
