→Highlights of 2020s:
Sesquicentennial Celebration: We are so excited to celebrate 150 years of Kappa next year. We plan to have a big celebration to talk about all the historical events that took place leading to Kappa's founding. We will also be following and keeping in touch with Karen Burholder Nichols, a Zeta Mu sister who will be traveling on the Minnie Stewart Van.
'''==Highlights of 2020s''':==From chapter’s History Report: Scholarship, group honors/awards, traditions, special events, changes on campus or within chapter, overall nature of the chapter, chapter goals, challenges and how they were overcome, etc.:
Because of the Covid 19 pandemic, this year was different than most years. We worked very hard to ensure that we did everything we could to stay connected virtually. This year we made it especially important to have special sisterhood events through zoom, so that our members still felt a part of
something. We had movie nights where we could share our screen with other members to watch a movie together, we had workout classes taught by girls in the chapter such as yoga and pilates, and with the holiday season we had baking events where sisters shared a cookie recipe and we were able to bake cookies at home but together on Zoom. We also focused a lot on mental health and education because the switch to fully virtual lives is difficult and exhausting mentally for some. We wanted to ensure that sisters had resources in the chapter and tips for how to manage our virtual education.
=Chapter Philanthropy= Philanthropy for our chapter and other organizations on campus were vastly different than they usually are. Things were moved on line and we were unable to conduct in person events. We participated in different philanthropic events for Delta Chi and Alpha Chi Omega this semester. For our own philanthropy we raised money for the Children's Health Improvement Partnership CHIP of the New River Valley. We set up CrowdChange pages to raise money virtually as well as had a percentage night at Chipotle. We chose to support CHIP so that we could help a local organization so they can continue helping people in our area. We also participated in other Greek philanthropies that supported causes such a victims of domestic violence and the Jimmy V foundation.
