Involvement/Volunteering |
I am a member of
Alpha
Gamma Delta
sorority. I joined in college and it has been a HUGE part of
my life since! When I lived in Michigan, I served as an advisor for
both
Eastern Michigan University
and the
University of Michigan. I was the President of the
Ypsi-Ann Arbor Area
Junior Circle
and now I am the
President of the
Greater Raleigh Junior Circle. I am
also a member of the Volunteer Service Team (VST) at the
International level. I am a proud member of the
Ritual Committee.
I also am involved on the
Letter Writing Team (LWT) for
Soldiers' Angels. I've been
involved with Soldiers' Angels since 2006. I write letters to our
men and women in the military overseas and send care packages. It's
my job to let them know that they're thought of, appreciated and
cared about!!
