PROJECT 13 PARTNERSHIP: St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital 2013 Give thanks. Walk. Toolkit
Walk. Give. To help them live. November
23
Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. is proud to continue our support for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital by joining forces for the 2013 St. Jude Give thanks. Walk.™ on Saturday, November 23 as a national volunteer partner for the third consecutive year. Our efforts help raise funds and bring awareness to the lifesaving mission of St. Jude, to find cures for kids suffering from cancer, sickle cell and other deadly diseases. St. Jude does this by combining pioneering research with exceptional care. The St. Jude Give thanks. Walk. is a fun, family-friendly 5K that takes place in communities across the country. It provides a great opportunity to engage two important groups of supporters – the African-American community and our illustrious sisterhood – who help raise crucial funds for research and treatment. Sorors are encouraged to fundraise $100 or more in honor of our Centennial. Thanks to supporters, no family ever pays St. Jude for anything because the hospital covers the cost of treatment, travel, lodging and food for patients and a family member.
As a National Volunteer Partner, chapters are asked to: Identify a local Delta Champion, for each participating walk market. The local Delta Champion will be responsible for:
Active participation on local walk volunteer committee Recruitment of 25 walkers for local team Recruitment of 20 volunteers for Walk Day and/or prewalk events, such as Kick-off Party, Pre-Registration or Venue-Set-up
