We need you!  Please join us for a heartwarming evening as we explore ADPi’s history with the Ronald McDonald House Charities both nationally and locally and explore our chance to continue to help build another house into a “Home Away From Home”.  Dianne Eidson, RMH-KC Volunteer Director, and Anne Dykes, Development Director, and Anne Jerome, Executive Director, will share with us how we can help lift the hearts of kids and families from the hurt of today to the hope of tomorrow.

“Self-Defense: T.A.K.E. Foundation Seminar”

Lawrence, Kansas

Exact Location will be communicated via E-vite and at www.gkcadpi.org

 Don’t miss this class! We will be joining the chapter members from the University of Kansas, Tau Chapter, to participate in this educational fundraiser.  This program represents a living legacy in honor of Ali Kemp, a 19 year old Leawood resident, who was murdered while working as a lifeguard at a residential subdivision pool in the summer of 2002.  Ali’s mother, Kathy Bower Kemp, is an Alpha Delta Pi from Southwest Missouri State, Gamma Mu Chapter.  The goal of this program is to raise awareness and to give women, young and old, the self-protection skills they need to avoid becoming the victims of violent crimes.  Participants will learn basic techniques for thwarting an attack, which could save their lives.  This program is being presented by The Ali Kemp Educational Foundation (T.A.K.E. Foundation).  

Financial donation will be collected for The Ali Kemp Educational Foundation
