Kappa Delta collegians and alumnae serve as mentors and volunteers, reinforcing our common values of honesty, integrity, friendship and leadership. Some members serve as troop leaders. Many chapters and alumnae associations have adopted a single troop or a few troops. Others work with all the troops in their area by hosting large events like campus tours or Thinking Day events. In early 2006, Kappa Delta joined forces with the groundbreaking Dove Campaign for Real Beauty, promoting self-esteem among girls nationwide through the Girl Scout Uniquely Me! program. Girl Scouts who take part in Kappa Delta-sponsored events earn a special Kappa Delta badge.
The Kappa Delta Foundation also contributes more than $10,000 annually to the Girl Scout Gold Award program, providing each Girl Scout Gold Award Young Woman of Distinction award recipient a $1,000 scholarship toward their college tuition. This collaboration continues to be a successful and favorite one for all involved. Hailing from across the nation, including Puerto Rico and Hawaii, the honorees embody the outstanding leadership, personal development and commitment necessary to earn this prestigious honor.
