Support Sisters in Crisis: Donate to the DKG Emergency Fund
When disaster strikes, the DKG International Educators Foundation (DKGIEF) Emergency Fund is there

to provide immediate financial assistance to members impacted by unexpected crises such as floods, fires,
hurricanes, and other natural disasters. Members can show their support by bringing a monetary donation to the
luncheon on Friday. This generosity will make a real and lasting difference in the lives of fellow DKG members
facing hardship, offering hope, relief, and a reminder that they are not alone. By standing together in the spirit of
service and belonging, attendees can help demonstrate that when one of DKG’s members faces difficulty, all of
its members rise to support her.
Members: proudly pack your favorite DKG attire and tote bag, and plan on making a difference by donating

to Dress for Success and the DKIGEF Emergency Fund. Come prepared to connect, contribute, and celebrate the
power of women supporting women. With the enthusiasm and generosity of all attendees, DKG will have a big
conference in the Big Easy!
