Tri Delta women are passionate about serving others and stronger together than they could ever be alone. They remain ever-dedicated to helping children live, scientists learn and St. Jude in its mission of finding cures for childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases.
As part of Tri Delta’s commitment to supporting children’s cancer initiatives, Tri Delta officially adopted St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital as its national philanthropic partner in 1999. Since that time, and with steadfast support from Tri Delta family and friends, Tri Delta members have raised over $68 million to support St. Jude patients and their families.
1999
November 1999 – Tri Delta officially adopts St. Jude Children's Research Hospital as its national philanthropic partner.
2005
In 2005, a year earlier than expected, Tri Delta raised $1 million that endowed the hospital's Teen Room.
2006
In 2006, Tri Delta took on a second commitment to raise $10 million in 10 years to name the Patient Care Floor in the Chili's Care Center. In just four years — by May 2010 — Tri Delta met the $10 million fundraising goal.
2010
In July 2010, Tri Delta announced its third naming commitment, an aggressive challenge to raise $15 million in 5 years to name the Specialty Clinic located in the Patient Care Center at St. Jude. In just three-and-a-half years, Tri Delta met their $15 million fundraising goal.
2014
In 2014, Tri Delta committed to raising $60 million in 10 years – the largest single commitment by a St. Jude partner. In honor of this commitment, Tri Delta has received prominent recognition on the St. Jude campus with the naming of the short-term housing facility, Tri Delta Place.
2018
Only three-and-a-half years into the 10 year commitment to raise $60 million, Tri Delta hit the halfway point and announced $30 million raised for St. Jude in January of 2018.
Today
Tri Delta collegiate and alumnae members are continually committed to raising funds and awareness for St. Jude as they strive to fulfill their $60 million commitment and assist in finding cures for childhood cancer.
