PHILANTHROPY & INVOLVEMENT

Philanthropic Focus

Alpha Gamma Delta’s philanthropic focus is Fighting Hunger. Food insecurity affects every race, age and community, including the communities where we are placed. That is why we want to be a part of the solution. Partnering with national and local organizations, we are able to make an impact on our communities. We are committed to contributing to the world’s work as our Purpose calls us to do. As a sisterhood, we work together to make a greater impact.

Our impact is enhanced through fundraising for the Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation. They provide fighting hunger grants to various organizations that are doing their part in their local community to fight hunger.

Campus Involvement

Our chapter loves to serve both in our community and on Belmont’s campus! Our efforts to supply full plates, full hearts, and full minds extend from hands on service to fundraising for organizations that are near and dear to us. We partner with Second Harvest Food Bank to help package meals together as a chapter. We also volunteer with The Store which is Brad and Kimberly Williams-Paisley’s charitable organization that functions like a typical grocery store with all of the groceries completely free for people in our community who need it. The Store offers a sense of normalcy while fighting the long standing problem of food insecurity. Not only do we love hands-on service at Belmont University, but we are active fundraisers too! Our latest service project, Alpha Gamma ‘Dilla, was an opportunity for us to sell quesadillas with all of the proceeds going towards the Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation. We were able to raise $697 in just 2 hours! Greek life philanthropy on our campus supports St. Jude Children’s Hospital, and we raise money for the organization by competing in Greek Sing! Greek Sing is a fundraiser where chapter choose songs and rewrite the lyrics while choreographing a dance as well. Last year, Alpha Gam raise $34,678 for St. Jude! As members of the Belmont University and Nashville communities, we are very fortunate to have these opportunities to serve and are excited to continue leading lives of service!
