The Pansy Patch
The Idea:
The Pansy Patch is the Foundation’s new Grand Convention Fundraiser for ALL Thetas. You can participate whether you’re at Convention or not!
So what’s the big idea? YOU help Thetas from all over create a HUGE Theta Pansy Patch! Special die-cut pansies representing your thanks for others who have made a difference in your Theta experience will fill the walls at Grand Convention in Miami. It’s a simple, fun way to say “thanks” that supports the Kappa Alpha Theta Foundation and helps Thetas all over the world learn, grow, and excel. You can’t beat that!
The Deal:
The Pansy Patch is a great way to share your thoughts and thanks with others. For just $5 you can purchase a die-cut pansy in celebration, honor or memory of your Theta sisters. These special pansies will be displayed in patches for all to see throughout Grand Convention this summer in Miami.
If your honoree is attending Convention, she’ll receive a pansy sticker to wear indicating that she’s been honored through the Pansy Patch. If not, you and your honoree’s name will still appear in the special listing in the Theta Magazine, as well as right here on the Foundation website for all to see!
The Competition:
Just when you thought it couldn’t get better, The Pansy Patch is also a competition between our nine Theta districts! Each district will have its own Pansy Patch display at Grand Convention. Which district will purchase the most pansies?
College chapters are competing against each other as well as by district. The goal is for 100% participation from each collegiate member. We hope that our alumnae will be just as enthusiastic about this challenge. Credit for alumnae purchases will go to your college chapter’s district unless you note your alumnae chapter on your information card.
Don’t let your chapter and district down! Purchase your pansies today!
The Sale:
The pansy pre-sale is on now through June 13, 2008. Pansies will then be on sale at Grand Convention in Miami June 18-22, 2008.
You can purchase as many pansies as you’d like.
