DKG giving back 

Delta Kappa Gamma is an organization for women who are active or retired teachers. The members work on projects to help individuals and causes at the local, state, national and international levels.

 At their February meeting, the members from Boyle and Mercer Counties enjoyed being together and worked wrapping books which will be given to students at the Kentucky School for the Deaf in Danville on Valentine’s Day. 

Also, the women educators voted to make a donation to the Heart of Kentucky United Way in honor of the Community Tutoring Initiative  which is part of Mercer Transformation. Students in grades first through third are tutored by high school and adult volunteers in the after school program, which meets on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Colette Smith is the executive director of  the CTI which will be held at Campbellsville University at 1150 Danville Road in Harrodsburg,  starting Tuesday. 

To volunteer or help make a donation to United Way or Mercer Transformation, call Smith at (859) 612-7695. For more information about Delta Kappa Gamma, call Adele Greenburg at (859) 734-2051.
