Dear Wisconsin A𝚫K Sisters,
Even if there is still snow on the ground in March, we know that spring is coming! We have so many exciting events to look forward to as sisters of A∆K! I hope to see many of you soon at our Wisconsin State Conference on April 28-29. Your Zeta sisters in Kenosha can’t wait to welcome you!
Another A∆K S/P/N president recently shared the following poem in her newsletter. The poem puts into words the relationship we have with our A∆K sisters~
Sisterhood
Sisterhood is many things.
It’s a warm smile on a cold and rainy day, a friendly
hug,
a cheerful hello...
It’s all that a good and lasting friendship is, only
better.
It’s treasured.
It’s sacred.
It’s knowing that there will always be someone there
for you.
It’s dreams shared, and goals achieved.
It’s counting on others and being counted on.
It is real.

I am so grateful to be part of a wonderful organization filled with such amazing women as each of you! Thank you for everything you do for students, each other, and your community!
With A𝚫K Sisterhood, Theresa
2023 Barbara Beetow Memorial Grant
Congratulations to all of the recipients of the 2023 Barbara Beetow Memorial Grant! A complete list of recipients is attached to this newsletter. The state executive board approved each grant at the state board meeting on January 21. Let’s give a special thank you to sustaining members Beverly Lee and Elsie Goulding, co-trustees of the AΔK Barbara Beetow Grant Fund. They dedicate their time and expertise to make sure each chapter is able to present a Beetow Grant to a well deserving 501(c)(3) charitable organization in their community. Thank you for all you do, Bev and Elsie!
