Thankful for Theta on GivingTuesday


_______________________________________________




Kappa Alpha Theta has left a meaningful impact on the lives of every Theta. Today, on Tuesday, Dec. 2, you’re invited to celebrate all that Theta has brought you and all that Theta can bring others by giving back to Theta on Theta Foundation's 10th year celebrating GivingTuesday. By giving to Theta on GivingTuesday, you can make a meaningful impact on the life of another Theta and, in turn, show your gratitude for Theta in a very tangible way.

GivingTuesday provides the annual opportunity for Thetas to unite in support of a cause about which we are all passionate. Since 2018, nearly $1.5 million has been raised on GivingTuesday to empower Thetas for generations through the Theta Forever Fund.

Every gift made on GivingTuesday benefits the Theta Forever Fund. These unrestricted gifts allow Theta Foundation to ensure the Theta experience continues for years to come. The Theta Forever Fund supports Theta’s educational, leadership, and philanthropic pursuits, and impactful experiences made available to members including Emerging Leaders Institute (ELI), the Alumnae Leadership Program, and the Leadership Certificate Program (LCP).
