A big thank you to all who have already paid their dues for 2012-2013!
Unlike other expenses, our dues remain the same: $35 for an Active Membership and $25 for a Sustaining Membership. And again this year, we would like to offer a discount for first-time dues payers: just $30 if you are new to our group and have never paid dues to the Phoenix Alumnae Chapter before. (But remember, Pi Zetas who have just graduated were given the gift of free membership to our alum group the first year when they become active in the alum chapter.)
Do you wonder where your dues go? We give gifts to our local Pi Zeta chapter throughout the year, fund a Taco Buffet & Ice Cream Social for the girls, make donations to the Foundation in memory of alums who have passed away, and many other worthwhile activities. Also, a portion goes to Delta Zeta National and to the Phoenix Panhellenic Association to cover our dues for those two organizations. Your dues go far!
At the bottom of the dues/membership form are donation "tickets" to enter you in a drawing. All proceeds from these go to our philanthropy efforts, including our annual scholarship to a graduating senior at the Phoenix Day School for the Deaf.
You can pay your dues by sending a check (payable to Delta Zeta Alumnae) to me. Please include the information on the dues form. (If you need one, contact Ann Santos or me.) The donation for the drawing is, of course, optional.
But, I must receive your dues by October 1 to include you in our new directory.
Thanks much!
Lorna Green
