In response to the back-to-back hurricanes that ravaged the Gulf Coast in late summer 2005, the Sigma Kappa Foundation established the Sister to Sister Disaster Recovery Fund. Designed to assist alumnae and collegiate members of Sigma Kappa in good standing who found themselves in distress due to the occurrence of a U.S. presidential-declared major disaster or emergency, the fund provided a means for helping hurricane victims as well as setting a framework through which to assist future disaster victims. Grant applications for the Sister to Sister Disaster Recovery Fund can be accepted for up to six months following the U.S. presidential-declaration of a major disaster or emergency, but contributions to the fund can be accepted at any time.
