Beta Lambda Sigma Chapter Marks 12th Year Supporting WRAL Coats for the Children Day of Giving
Raleigh, NC — The Beta Lambda Sigma Chapter of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc., together with the Beta Lambda Sigma Charitable Foundation, proudly announces its 12th consecutive year participating in the annual WRAL Coats for the Children Day of Giving, benefitting The Salvation Army. As temperatures drop and winter approaches, the chapter remains steadfast in its commitment to helping keep children across the Triangle warm.
“For many families, a winter coat is more than a necessity – it’s security, comfort, and relief,” said Celeste Brown, President of the Beta Lambda Sigma Chapter. “We are honored to continue this annual tradition of service and to support children who need us most.”
Thousands of children in the region lack proper winter gear, and community support is essential. All proceeds collected by the Beta Lambda Sigma Charitable Foundation go directly to WRAL Coats for the Children.
