In 1904, 11 women created an organization that would provide educational, philanthropic and leadership opportunities for women - Alpha Gamma Delta Fraternity. The Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation was created in 1962 ensuring that the Fraternity's mission would live on into Alpha Gamma Delta's second century, allowing women of all ages to make positive differences on their campus and in their communities.
Each semester, for the past seven years, the Alpha Gamma Delta Chapter on Chico State’s campus has hosted an event called Charity Denim. We have consecutively raised $1,500 each semester for our Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation by selling designer jeans for a discounted price. All of the proceeds raised during Charity Denim are sent to our Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation in Indianapolis, Indiana. This money allows children to attend diabetes summer camps, provides money for diabetes research and assists in educating people about this growing disease.
