Our local Philanthropy is Girls Inc. of St. Louis. Gamma Phi Beta and Girls Inc. have worked closely in a partnership for more than five years. Each year our alumnae chapter raises money and collects supplies to donate that are used to support the programs provided by Girls Incorporated of St. Louis.
As part of pur philanthropic efforts, our alumnae group has focused on the library at Girls Inc. Recently various alumnae have assisted in sorting and organizing the current library. In addition, the alumnae group raised $1200 which, along with a $400 matching gift from our International office, was donated to Girls, Inc.
To further our commitment we'd like to donate new books for young women to have available while attending Girls Inc. If you have a favorite book or childrens' author, it would make a lovely addition to their library. Currently, the library is full of very old, used and worn out books which have been donated from other schools around the area. If you are interested in donating books to the Girls Inc. library through the Gamma Phi Beta Alumnae Chapter please contact Jackie McIlhagga, philanthropy chair.
