February 2011

In March, the newly established Delta Kappa Gamma Non-Dues-Revenue Committee met for the first time in Austin, Texas.  The committee had an opportunity to visit the studio of Susan Wallace, a local artist, who was commissioned to create our Wall of Roses. It has just been hung at International Headquarters.  This will honor members who as part of their Planned Giving leave a significant donation to one of the Society funds.  There are three levels of giving -$10,000-$24,999, $25,000-$49,999 and $50,000 or above level.  When a person donates, their name and the name of the fund will be engraved on a colored glass leaf which will help bring life and new color to the artistic piece.  Three shades of green represent the levels of giving - Jade, Garnet and Emerald.  Members will be able to make this decision now.  Only 100 leaves are available.  If you would like further information, please contact me at phyllish@dkg.org  Any member contributing at least $1,000 to a Society fund will have their name recorded in a book near the Wall of Roses.
