"No child should die in the dawn of life"
-Danny Thomas, Founder of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital
Three of our officers had the opportunity to attend the Tri Delta Leadership Weekend at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee. These members devoted their weekend to learning more about our incredible philanthropy alongside Tri Deltas from various other chapters around the country. The weekend proved to be one of the most touching and rewarding experiences of their lives. They were able to see our beloved philanthropy in action, helping children in need from all over the world. The unbreakable spirit of hope and courage that St. Jude encompasses truly inspired these ladies. Each officer returned home to South Carolina with a newfound knowledge of St. Jude and an even deeper love for the organization.
Philanthropy Chair Valeria Pruc said,
"After the Leadership Weekend at St. Jude, I have never been prouder to be a member of Tri Delta and a partner with St. Jude. It was such a blessing to be surrounded by 300 sisters from all over the nation whose selfless leadership is revealed in serving their chapters and the families of St. Jude. One of Tri Delta's contributions to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital that is most special to me is Tri Delta Place. This special place serves as a home for families so they can focus on healing and hope for their child, rather than the financial burden of finding a place to live during treatment."
