Lambda Kappa Sigma Holds Sister Soiree

The sisters of the Lambda Kappa Sigma Alpha Pi chapter hosted a dinner on April 6 to strengthen bonds between alumni and collegiate sisters of the chapter. During the event activities were organized to allow participants to mingle and learn more about each other.

Another goal of the event was to perform service together. Collegiate sisters and alumni members created hygiene kits for the homeless population by filling bags with travel-size shampoo bottles, tissues, toothbrushes, and similar items and sealed the bags with a personalized note.
