Delta Kappa Gamma is a professional honor society of women educators who have made a difference in the lives of students, teachers and others in our community. Active members are women who are employed as professional educators or who have retired from an educational position. Each spring DKG holds a spring Luncheon/Fashion Show as a fund raiser for the many projects DKG supports and this year it was held in May. The event generates funds for scholarships to high school students planning to become educators, grants for classroom teachers, and financial support for educators’ professional development. After a delicious lunch, scholarship winners were introduced, and previous scholarship winners spoke about their experiences and what the scholarships meant to them. A fashion show, sponsored by the Coral Sash Boutique in Brighton, was presented with chapter members and their families modeling. We accepted donations and had drawings for prizes. It was a wonderful event, enjoyed by all who attended and most importantly resulted in helping so many others and the community.

In December we will have our annual Holiday Gala Fundraiser which will be held this year at Antonio’s of Canton, December 5, 2026.The Gala will provide meals and gift cards for local families and children in need, and as funds allow the district’s clothing bank and the Ronald McDonald House. All are welcome to attend and tickets must be purchased in advance. Anyone interested in supporting this event may contact Sandy Baxter:sabaxter@comcast.net.

DKG embodies the spirit of supporting education, and people in the community. Our chapter welcomes inquiries from any field or level of education. For further information you may contact Mickey Edell:mousemick@att.net.
