Anya Jan, Lafayette, shares how she knew Kappa was her home while participating in virtual Recruitment from Dubai.
Going into Recruitment, I was feeling both excited and nervous. The moment I joined the first Zoom call with the Kappa girls, I immediately felt at home. Everyone was so welcoming and excited to be there, regardless of the unconventional circumstances.

The genuine love all of the girls had for one another made my decision clear. I wanted to be part of Kappa. I just knew that joining would push me to grow and be the best version of myself. I’m counting down the days to be with my Kappa family.

The Story of Rose McGill

Since 1922, Kappa has been there for members experiencing financial distress. The Foundation’s grant program began when Rose McGill, Toronto, contracted tuberculosis. Her ties to Kappa remained strong and when she became ill, her Kappa sisters were there to help. Rose, an orphan, was provided for financially through the establishment of the Rose McGill fund. After her death in 1927 the Rose McGill Fund continued, and, thanks to the Kappa Kappa Gamma Foundation, helps members in need of emergency financial assistance to this day.
Today, the program gives confidential grants to Kappas in unexpected times of financial need. Read about how the Rose McGill legacy continues to support our members today.
