Disaster Relief

At this time, we have heard of members suffering damage to property, but, thankfully, we have not heard of any members suffering personal injury. Our sisters have been, and are being, affected by natural disasters in multiple locations. Let us keep them in our thoughts and prayers at this time as they assess their damage and work to move forward. There are many agencies who are moving to get supplies and assistance to those in need according to news reports.  

Keeping up with the weather and disasters of this magnitude is difficult at times.  Please keep in touch and let us know if you have something to be shared or reported regarding our Alpha Delta Kappa family. Let us pull together and embrace our sisters with support, love and care who are in need at this time.  What can we do?   

The Alpha Delta Kappa Foundation has a line item in its budget for disaster relief. Donations can be sent to the Alpha Delta Kappa Foundation and you can indicate on the subject/memo line “disaster relief” or more specifically to an S/P/N (ex:  Louisiana flooding).  Online donations may also be made through the website. When it is specific to a S/P/N, those monies will be sent to the S/P/N treasurer and that S/P/N Disaster Relief Committee will decide how to distribute the funds to assist our members affected.  A donation with only “disaster relief” will go into the fund and be distributed as needed depending on the number of inquiries. Your donation is tax deductible and you will receive a donation statement for tax purposes in January. Thank you so much for your continued support!

A note about membership badges lost in natural disasters:  If chapters have extra badges in their badge banks, please send them to with a personal note to a sister who may have lost hers in a disaster, and we will see that they are appropriately distributed.

Introducing the 2018-19 World Understanding Project: TEACH TOO

 As of November 2, 2018, $5,572.57 has been raised for Project TEACH TOO!



TEACH TOO requests grant funds to construct transitional housing for 48 older teens to enable them to finish their education and learn an occupation. According to Haitian law, children residing in licensed orphanages cannot remain after the age of 18. As a result, older students have had to leave the Imagine Missions orphanage without the skills or abilities required to be independent and successful. Transitional housing with occupancy limited to two years or less enables these students to finish their most important goal—completing their education. Imagine Missions will mentor these students and assist them throughout this process.  https://www.ImagineMissions.org

Funds will be donated to the Alpha Delta Kappa Foundation this fall, winter and spring, and TEACH TOO will receive the funds at the 2019 International Convention in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The target amount for the project is $50,000.

You may donate online (on the website under "Foundation/Donations") OR
Mail your donation to:
Alpha Delta Kappa Foundation

Please note "TEACH TOO" in the special instructions box on the online donation form or in the memo line of the check.  Thank you so much!

It has come to our attention that two of our regions and one of our S/P/Ns have recently been victims of fraud attempts.  There are myriad ways fraudsters can get information online.  (Per federal regulations, nonprofit information filed with the Internal Revenue Service is a matter of public record.)  How can you protect yourself and Alpha Delta Kappa?  

Check, ACH, and wire fraud continue to rise, and being alert to these fraudsters’ methods is important
