| Epsilon Beta's Philanthropies on Campus Dear Fellow UNO Students, Sigma Kappa Sorority is very excited about holding our 2nd Annual Kickball Tournament, Kick in the Grass, to benefit our philanthropy, Alzheimer’s disease research! It is taking place on Saturday, April 12th on the intramural field next to the Newman Center at noon. Please come out to help support our philanthropy and have a blast playing kickball against the other UNO student teams! The first and second place teams will receive an award, and the first place team’ s organization will have a discounted registration fee for the 2009 tournament. A little bit about Alzheimer’s Disease More than 5 million Americans now have Alzheimer’s disease. Alzheimer's destroys brain cells, causing problems with memory, thinking and behavior severe enough to affect work, lifelong hobbies or social life. Alzheimer’s gets worse over time, and it is fatal. Today it is the seventh-leading cause of death in the United States. We all know someone that is affected by Alzheimer’s disease and if it is a family member it is emotionally painful. Sigma Kappa is striving for a cure and asking for your help. You can contact unosigmakappa@yahoo.com for any further questions regarding the event. Registration packets can also be turned into any Sigma Kappa. If you are unable to attend and would still like to donate to Alzheimer’s disease research you may present a check to any Sigma Kappa sister which will in turn be given to Sigma Kappa Foundation for Gerontology. Please make checks payable to “Sigma Kappa”. Hope to see you there! Sincerely, The Sisters of Sigma Kappa Sorority |
