The Annual Ultra Violet Campaign
The official Sigma Kappa fundraiser is the annual Ultra Violet Campaign. The Ultra Violet Campaign concept was developed to provide collegiate and alumnae chapters with effective and engaging opportunities to raise funds and awareness for Sigma Kappa’s philanthropic priorities. The Ultra Violet Campaign designation is designed to create immediate recognition for Sigma Kappa events intended to raise funds for Sigma Kappa Foundation to fund educational and leadership programs for Sigma Kappa women and the current Alzheimer’s disease research grant through the Alzheimer’s Association. Additional information on the Ultra Violet Campaign can be found at www.ultravioletcampaign.org.
Support for the Maine Sea Coast Mission
Sigma Kappa chapters are asked to support the Maine Sea Coast Mission annually through both monetary contributions and gifts. Gifts are sent directly to the Maine Sea Coast Mission for holiday distribution to the people served by the Mission.
Week of Giving
Sigma Kappa’s nationwide Week of Giving occurs each year during the week of November 9, our Founders’ Day. It is a time to celebrate our history of sisterhood and service to others.
Inherit the Earth
Adopted in 1992, Inherit the Earth is Sigma Kappa's national gerontology service project. The program is designed to combine our interest in gerontology with a project to benefit the environment. Most chapters plan their Inherit the Earth project in the spring, usually occurring in late April to coincide with Earth Day.
Gerontology
In further support of Sigma Kappa’s dedication to gerontology, each chapter is expected to have a local gerontology project in which it participates. The project always benefits senior citizens.
