During the fashion show members and friends of Delta Theta Tau will model current styles and accessories provided by Christopher & Banks of Plainfield. The fun will also include drawings for several door prizes and a special raffle prize.

Delta Theta Tau is a national organization dedicated to the advancement of philanthropy and charity and membership is open to women of all ages.

Theta Chapter has been working for more than 108 years to improve the lives of children, women and families in Putnam County. It does so by donating money, time, and effort to programs such as the food pantry, non-food pantry, Mary Allison Children’s Trust, Imagination Library, Reality Fair, Summer Enrichment Program, Giving Tree, Phil the Need, the Red Cross, Family Support Services, the Memorial Garden flower beds at Forest Hill Cemetery and many others.

Several years ago Theta Chapter donated to the Greencastle Fire Department the very first Fire Safety/Smoke House to help teach children how to escape and survive a fire.

The sorority also provides two grants each year to help young women advance their education. It is able to do all this as a result of the generous community support of fundraisers such as this luncheon, the Holiday Home Tour and the sale of hundreds of cheese balls.
