Tri Deltas are passionate about serving others.
We remain dedicated to three aspects of philanthropy: sisters helping sisters through Tri Delta’s Foundation, our commitment to changing the way the world treats and defeats childhood cancer through our work with local and regional children’s hospitals and pediatric cancer initiatives and through our national partnership with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
Hey everyone! My name is Carly, and I am the Director of Philanthropy for the Tri Delta chapter at UCI. We have been dedicating our philanthropic fundraising efforts to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital since our partnership in 1999. From the very beginning, I knew that St. Jude was not just an organization we would support, but a beacon of hope for children and families facing unimaginable challenges. Each day, as we witness the incredible work being done at St. Jude, our commitment grows stronger. The unwavering dedication of the doctors, nurses, researchers, and staff at St. Jude is truly awe-inspiring, as they tirelessly strive to find cures and provide exceptional care to children battling life-threatening illnesses. But St. Jude's impact goes beyond medical treatment. They also provide housing and food for families throughout the duration of their child's treatment. I have had the honor of witnessing the profound impact of this support firsthand at the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee, where I also had the privilege of visiting the 'Tri Delta Place' housing facility. This experience has only deepened my admiration and commitment. As the Director of Philanthropy, organizing events and fundraisers has opened my eyes to the incredible strength and resilience of these children and their families. Their stories have touched my heart, teaching me the true value of lending a helping hand, no matter what personal challenges I may face. It has reminded me that there is no greater gift than playing a part in helping a child become cancer-free and giving them the chance to embrace a future filled with joy and endless possibilities.
