LAMBDA THETA ALPHA FOUNDATION

The Lambda Theta Alpha Foundation (LTA Foundation) was created as

a separate entity from the sorority as a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization

to respond to the growing need for additional financial support in our

communities. In 2021-2022, members of Lambda Theta Alpha raised

$30,378.25 while supporting the following campaigns:

7 Annual

2021-2022

ST. JUDE CHILDREN’S RESEARCH HOSPITAL

Lambda Theta Alpha celebrated 11 years in partnership

with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital at the St. Jude

Walk/Run event. This signature event brings communities

together nationwide during Childhood Cancer Awareness

Month to raise funds for the hospital. With more than 90

registered teams nationwide, Lambda Theta Alpha met and

exceeded its annual goal, raising $40,157.

In addition, LTA participated in a multi-market team blitz week and a No More Cancer

Rally alongside other Greek organizations. LTA was awarded the 2021 Top Multi-

Market Community Team by St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Members also

attended the St. Jude Promesa y Esperanza Virtual Seminar, “Love Music. Stop Cancer.

¡En Vivo con St. Jude.” During the virtual seminar, participants were joined by A.B.

Quintanilla, Hayley Arceneaux, and many St. Jude patients to learn about the

significant impact of our fundraising efforts and exciting new updates for the coming

year.

CDC LET’S STOP HIV TOGETHER CAMPAIGN

Through our expansive network, we aim to support this campaign by sharing

resources, initiating dialogue, and raising awareness for minorities and people of

color living with or affected by HIV/AIDS.

Throughout the next year, Lambda Theta Alpha

will be engaged in various activities to educate

our members about this health disparity affecting

racial and ethnic minorities.

Annual Scholarship Campaign

The LTA Foundation provides annual scholarships for students

pursing education at the undergraduate, graduate, and

doctoral levels and who demonstrate commitment to

advancing their community.

NATIONAL VOTER REGISTRATION DAY

1.975 Run: Avenue for Advancement

Aligned with its mission to promote political activism, Lambda Theta

Alpha is proud to continue its partnership with National Voter

Registration Day in an effort to register voters ahead of critical state

and local elections in 2021 and midterm elections in 2022.

In 2021, 23 undergraduate and alumnae chapters participated by

connecting with their local communities and campuses to register

people to vote in person and virtually, and highlight the importance

of making your voice heard in our elections.

SOCIAL MEDIA

The annual event supports efforts to uplift communities

through various avenues. In 2022, proceeds were allocated to

organizations already engaging in enrichment initiatives for

vulnerable and underrepresented communities.

In March 2022, Lambda Theta Alpha grew, the national

Instagram account to 10K followers, a new milestone in

our sorority’s social media presence.
