Operation Backpack
August 8, 2007
Eight members of the Gamma Eta chapter of Delta Kappa Gamma continued their tradition of helping District 4 students when they spent the morning shopping for school supplies which they donated for use in District 4 schools. Delta Kappa Gamma is a professional honor society of women educators.  The society promotes professional and personal growth of its members and excellence in education.

The shopping crew, made up of retired District 4 teachers, shopped at the Wood Dale Target store using funds donated by individual chapter members , a $100 gift card donated by Target and a grant from the Lambda State Educational Foundation. They purchased over 100 backpacks, notebook paper, folders, crayons, pens, pencils, markers, erasers, scissors and rulers. These supplies will be distributed to the eight District 4 schools where the supplies will be available for students who are in need.

Thank you Gamma Eta members, Wood Dale Target and DKG's Lambda State Educational Foundation!
