==Highlights of 2018==
This past year Delta Upsilon has participated in several events and activities. For one, we made a goal for at least one member of the sorority to attend every other sororities' philanthropy events, which we have accomplished. In addition, we have required every member participate in our two philanthropy events, Kappa Kasino and Kappa Crawfish Boil; both have been a huge success in raising money for Books for Keeps. One special event we had this year was participating in raising money for an event called "Jam of Cam." We hosted a trunk show in honor of a fellow UGA student, who passed away from cancer, named Cameron Fearon. A percentage of the proceeds from the trunk show went to various organizations that helped Cameron and other kids suffering from his specific disease. It was a great way for Kappa to get involved with other fraternities and sororities and participate in a great cause.

One large and visible change on campus is the development of Terry's Business Learning Center. The project is finishing its last phase with two new buildings in the center of campus, right across from Bolton Dining Hall. The overalll nature of the chapter is friendly, outgoing, and kind-hearted. We all have so much fun doing sorority activities and being all together. Anyone can see our chapter's loving personally just by observing a chapter meeting. While we love having fun together, we also take issues and situations very seriously. Therefore, if there are any problems, every member is eager to contribute and help make the chapter the best it can be.
'''Philanthropy'''
UGA Kappa Kappa Gamma supports Books for Keeps, a local non-profit that provides books to underprivileged children to read over the summer and prevent the "summer slide." We chose this organization because Kappas believe reading is extremely important to achieve grade-level literacy and help children continue to learn and excel. We specifically chose Books for Keeps because we are able to see a direct impact from our philanthropy efforts. It is a great way to give back to the community.
