Alumni Tea: April 29, 2017

On April 29, 2017, we held our Biennial Alumni Tea. We were all so excited to see our alumni! This event really shows how the bond of sisterhood lasts well beyond those four years at Catholic. It was great to share stories about each others pledge process and how things have changed but stayed the same in KTG. We are so grateful that this sisterhood still remains on campus as the single standing sorority! We look forward to seeing Alumni again at Homecoming and at Tea in 2019!

Relay For Life

On April 21st, Catholic University celebrated its 10th Relay for Life on our campus! We had a ton of girls come out and fundraise, and together we raised over $3,000! Kappa Tau Gamma had the 2nd donations from a student organization! We all came together on Friday night to support Relay for Life and had a ton of fun! Our table activity was stress balls which was a hit among many other participants. We enjoyed live performances and rallied together for loved ones who either were suffering or are suffering from cancer. It was a great bonding event for all of us for an even greater cause! I am so proud of all the sister of KTG for the dedication to service and their hard work fundraising for such an awesome and meaningful event!

MLK Day of Service

On Monday, January 16th, almost a thousand members of the CUA gathered to celebrate the life and legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. by going out in the city to serve others. Kappa Tau Gamma was one of many organizations to volunteer. Our social service sorority volunteered with City Year, an organization focused on educating young students from low-income homes. There, sisters painted benches to be placed outside of Dorothy I. Height, an elementary school located in the heart of the District. Overall, it was an enjoyable day serving the community and embodying our motto, "We can change the world." Sisters Painting Signs for the school benches

The 45th Presidential Inauguration and The Women's March

Living in the National's Capital has its many perks, from being able to go to the monuments at any given moment, to interning on the hill and getting your foot in the political door, to experiencing history as the 45th President of the United States of America gets elected into office and then the following day thousands of people coming together to march for the rights of those they feel need a voice in society today. Over the weekend many sisters and alumni got to witness history not only on Friday but on Saturday as well.  Before the Inauguration Began Sister Maddie at the Inauguration We loved seeing so many sisters truly stand for what they believe and make a stand for themselves and others. I remember my first inauguration and its truly something so inspiring to see, the peaceful handoff of power from one president to the next. Whether you agree with the new president or not, I think we all can agree that living in a country where freedom of speech and democracy run
