On October 30th, 2021, the Alpha Xi Chapter of Kappa Delta Sorority at the University of Louisville will host its 16th annual Shamrock Run to raise money for the prevention of child abuse through Prevent Child Abuse Kentucky and Prevent Child Abuse America. Kappa Delta chapters across the state have raised $229,894 for Prevent Child Abuse Kentucky, and the Alpha Xi chapter at UofL alone has raised over $100,000 since 1997. Our goal is to raise $30,000 for the prevention of child abuse. 80 percent of the proceeds raised will stay in our community to fund the work being done by Prevent Child Abuse Kentucky. The remaining 20 percent will go to Prevent Child Abuse America, the leading advocate for preventing child abuse and neglect among our nation’s children since 1972. Since adopting PCAA as our national philanthropy in 1983, Kappa Delta has raised more than $15 million nationally for this important cause. With your help, we can continue to make an impact on the lives of children in our community and nationwide. This year's Shamrock'n Run: Color Me KayDee event will be a color run 5k.
