| Samuel A. Kirk School In 1971 this public day school for physically and mentally handicapped students was opened and our Alumnae Club has been raising funds for them since 1972. Our first "Crafteria" was on its way and we have presented an art & craft show to benefit the school every year since. To date we have contributed over $300,000 to the School for purchase of equipment to help provide education and training in functional academics, daily living activities and vocational skills. Our members, along with members of Parents and Teachers of Handicapped Students, organize and plan the annual Spring Showcase of Arts & Crafts to benefit the School and the Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation. It is held the first week in March every year. |

| This juried art & craft show features over ninety exhibitors displaying their handcrafted jewelry, ceramics, fine art, metal and woodwork, clothing, photography, and glassware. In addition there is a bake sale, cafe with refreshments and an abundance of raffle prizes. We also support Kirk School by participating in their fundraisers including Market Day, merchandise sales and colleting Campbell's soup labels, Box Tops for Education and pop top tabs. |
