You are invited to bring your children and grandchildren to spend a morning ice-skating with Clifford the Big Red Dog, and don't forget your camera! Watch for details in our fall KCPT Fundraiser mailing. This fundraiser replaces the 45-year Antique, Garden and Home Design Show that donated over $900,000 to Kansas City philanthropies. Consider a tax-deductible donation to join or renew your KCPT membership through GPB; or donate any amount, not considering KCPT membership. We enjoyed remarkable “first time” KCPT Fundraiser success with 100 Gamma Phi’s donating over $11,000 for children’s programming! Our name and logo will be displayed prominently at the Kids on Ice event and continue to appear in 100 promotional spots on KCPT Public Television 19.

There was $2500 was raised during this event to support the collegiate scholarship grants program! Panhellenic awarded $10,000 in scholarship grants to 18 deserving women, including four Gamma Phi Beta women from Kansas State University! Join your sisters and enjoy delicious food and friendship, as well as honor and support our new Gamma Phi Beta, 2010 Woman of The Year recipient. Our 2009 recipient Pam Kulp Pheffer was honored last year along with other women from Kansas City alumnae groups. The Alumnae Panhellenic of Greater Kansas City was founded in 1901 and is made up of 21 national sororities. It provides a wonderful service to worthy collegiate sorority women by awarding educational scholarships. Funds are raised through the silent auction and raffle ticket drawing during this annual brunch and through donations from other sorority alumnae chapters, including our local alumnae chapter. Collegiate applicants are evaluated by scholastic achievement, financial need, college and community activities, recommendation letter, and interview skills. The Silent Auction is extraordinary and the $300 Raffle Ticket Drawing was won by our own Julie Scott; she promptly returned $150 back to the scholarship fund!
