Chapter Philanthropy

 

Sigma Sigma Sigma's philanthropy is a partnership between Sigma Serves Children and March of Dimes. 

Sigma Serves Children is the philanthropic initiative to benefit children’s health. We raise money to support play therapy rooms across the country. We believe that we can impact a child's life, and every child deserves to get the treatment that they need. 

The March of Dimes has led the way to discover the genetic causes of birth defects, to promote newborn screening, and to educate medical professionals and the public about best practices for healthy pregnancy. It supports research for surfactant therapy to treat respiratory distress and helped initiate the system of regional neonatal intensive care for premature and sick babies. 

Since 2003, the fight to save babies has been strongly characterized by the Prematurity Campaign. The rising incidence of premature birth has demanded action, and the March of Dimes has responded by initiating an intensive, multi-year campaign to raise awareness and find the causes of prematurity. Learn about our March of Dimes partnership.

Eta Kappa helps to raise funds for March of Dimes and the Tri Sigma Foundation by hosting our annual 5k marathon with the proceeds going to support March Of Dimes and our annual Character Tea Party with the proceeds supporting the Tri Sigma Foundation.
