The Kappa Sigma Fraternity at Washington College, Chestertown MD, has a long and proud tradition of supporting veterans’ charities, primarily through its semi-annual charity pancake breakfast, an event which some of you have attended in the past. Since its inception, this event has raised over $94,000 for the Kappa Sigma Military Heroes Campaign – a composite charity serving the medical, psychological, physical, and housing needs of America’s veterans – one pancake at a time.
This semester’s pancake breakfast will be held on April 5, 8am to 1pm at Emmanuel Episcopal Church in Chestertown. As usual, a donation of $5.00 – 100% of which goes to charity – gets you all-you-can eat pancakes, eggs, sausage, bacon, juices, and coffee.
The Kappa Sigma Military Heroes Campaign supports a suite of veterans’ charities, including Homes for Our Troops, a charity fighting the plight of homelessness among our nation’s veterans, Veterans Moving Forward, which provides service dogs, facility dogs, and emotional support dogs to veterans with physical and/or mental health challenges at no cost to the veteran or their family, and Veterans Success Resources Group, a nonprofit organization dedicated to facilitating access to professional and personal resources and networking for Veterans and their families.
