The responsibility to serve has long held an important place in the hearts of Tri Deltas. This commitment to civic engagement and responsibility is reflected in the Fraternity's philanthropic activities and service opportunities. 

Since the early 1970s Tri Delta's chosen philanthropy has been Children's Cancer Charities. This philanthropic cause encompasses a wide array of charitable organizations and represents the collective effort of Tri Delta's members and chapters across the United States and Canada who continue to donate goods, volunteer time and host fund-raisers for the research and treatment of children with cancer.

Chapters organize and plan their own events each year to raise money for the Children's Cancer Charity of their choosing. 
 
Tri Delta's partnership with St. Jude Children's Research Hospital allows chapters the option to help on a national level while continuing to support local causes. Since beginning the partnership in 1999, Tri Delta has raised more than 17 million dollars.

Tri Delta is proud to announce the completion of its $15 million fundraising goal for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

And we are excited to report that the goal was completed two years ahead of schedule.

Since officially naming St. Jude as our national philanthropic partner in 1999, Tri Delta has raised move than $27 million. This partnership has proven that together we can accomplish big things. We are making childhood moments possible for kids around the world through the lifesaving mission that St. Jude eagerly tackles each and every day.

 

"We are so excited for the next step in our relationship with St. Jude," said Fraternity President Phyllis Durbin Grissom, Southern Methodist. "It's an exciting time for Tri Delta, and our members are as dedicated as ever to helping the kids of St. Jude."
