HOOPS -n- HOGS

• Hoops represents the basketball tournament that is played. Each team pays a $100 entry fee which is donated to the Ronald McDonald House.

• Hogs represents the barbeque that is held after the winners of the basketball tournament are announced.

RAFFLE TICKETS

• Many businesses in Valdosta donated gifts to be raffled off.

• Over $500 dollars was raised just by selling the raffle tickets alone.

Bar-B-Que

• Every girl was required to sell 5 barbeque tickets.

• Over 500 barbeque plates were sold.

POP TABS

• The Ronald McDonald House Charities also collect pop tabs.

• Our chapter set up a competition between the local elementary schools in Valdosta.

POP TABS

• The school that collects the most pop tabs gets a visit from Ronald McDonald.

• The class that collects the most pop tabs receives a Happy Meal for lunch.

The Ronald McDonald House

• The aim of the Ronald McDonald House is to provide comfort and “a home-away-from-home” for the families of seriously ill children.

• The Ronald McDonald House funds offer grants to non-profit organizations whose programs are for children in need.

• Since the Ronald

McDonald House was

established, Alpha

Delta Pi has

contributed over $2.5

million to the effort.

• The girls of Alpha

Delta Pi spend time,

energy, and money

volunteering at many

of the 240 houses

across the world.

COMMUNITY SERVICE

• Community service is a good way to boost the self-confidence of yourself and others.

COMMUNITY SERVICE

• Community service is important because giving to others is a way to realize how privileged you are.

COMMUNITY SERVICE

• My day of community service was not only beneficial to the Ronald McDonald House, but I got a feeling of accomplishment and pride.

• I would do it again because I think that it is important to give back to the community.
