In 1936, Ruth Billow, a member of Delta Gamma who was blind, petitioned members to adopt “Aid the Blind” as the organization’s official philanthropy. Since then, Delta Gamma has strived to aid the visually impaired through Service for Sight. This Thursday, April 7, the ladies of Lambda chapter will be hosting their second annual DG Diner from 9 p.m. to midnight to contribute to the philanthropy.
If you haven’t already, flag down a Delta Gamma on campus to buy a ticket! For only $6, a ticket provides admission to the event and a meal consisting of a burger, chips and a milkshake! Tickets will also be available at the door the night of the philanthropic event for $7.
The fun doesn’t stop there -- Love Your Melon will be giving out three items via raffle! Be sure to snag a raffle ticket as you come in to enter for a chance to win a Love Your Melon beanie, cuffed beanie or baseball cap!
The night will be full of energy as there will be a DJ spinnin’ some tracks and free Red Bull for all to enjoy! There will also be a photo wall with our letters and other fun props to document the awesome night you’re going to have.
After the event, Delta Gammas will be pairing up with Food Recovery Network and packing up all leftover food to bring to Urban Ventures or Loaves & Fishes locations. This will ensure that every dollar spent and every resource used goes toward helping others.
With all of the fun activities planned and delicious food prepared, DG Diner is sure to be a success this year! Come spend your Thursday night with your favorite DeeGees and support the philanthropy that means so much to them! Check out last year's diner if you want a taste of the fun beforehand!
