On the Society website www.dkg.org , complete Form 43 and send in your donation.  Remember we are leading women educators impacting education worldwide.  We continue to touch the lives of many.

Keep in mind that contributions to these funds are tax-deducatible to the fullest extend of the law in the USA and in some other countries.

December 2013

Have you been asked to produce an insurance waiver for one or two million dollars of coverage in order to have a meeting at a specific school or location? Many chapters have inquired about general liability insurance.  This type of insurance protects the chapter and the members from law suits, if someone is injured at an event where the chapter or individuls are help responsible.  Events can include general meetings, dinners, service projects, and more. The Society does not have this type of insurance to cover all state organizations and chapters, but we do have a partnership with Association Insurance Management, Inc. (AIM).  AIM will offer you competively priced group rates. Check out their website to see if this would be a good option for your to consider.
