Alpha Sigma Alpha has chosen as its national philanthropy aid to individuals with developmental disabilities.
Specifically, our sorority is committed to supporting the Special Olympics program as volunteers and the S.
June Smith Center through financial contributions.
SPECIAL OLYMPICS

Special Olympics was established in 1968 bu the
Joseph P Kennedy Foundation and exists in all 50
US states, the District of Columbia, and over 120
countries around the word.

Special Olympics provides sports training and
competition opportunities for children and adults
with mental retardation.

Alpha Sigma Alpha's affiliation with Special
Olympics began in 1976, when the National
Convention body voted to name Special Olympics
as the first designated national philanthropy.

Since then, collegiate and alumnae chapters have
continued to support Special Olympics with both
time and financial support.

S. JUNE SMITH CENTER

The S. June Smith Center, named for Dr. S. June
Smith, provides programs of early intervention to
meet the needs of infants and preschoolers with
developmental and physical disabilities.

The S. June Smith Center, established in 1965,
provides individual programs of intensive,
personal care at no cost to participants to help
each child reach his or her fullest potential.

Dr. S. June Smith's message is clear. It is simply
"to find the gift in every child."

Since its adoption as a national philanthropy,
collegiate and alumnae chapters support the S.
June Smith center with financial support. In
addition, local chapters in the Lancaster County,
Pennsylvania area also provide valuable volunteer
hours at the Center.
