Gamma Sigma Sigma is a national service sorority, and our priority is doing community service. During the last few weeks, we have performed a few different service projects. First, the members of Gamma as well as our MITs made miniature flower pots for residents of Hillview Manor, a local nursing home. At the nursing home, residents are not allowed to have real flowers in their rooms so we all painted and designed small wooden pots and glued fake flowers in them so that the residents could have flowers to look at. We plan to take them to Hillview upon our next visit in March.

We also do service projects with other Greek organizations at Saint Francis. Alpha Phi Delta fraternity and Gamma Sigma Sigma made candy bags to send to Hillview. We had the help of Alpha brothers, pledges, Gamma members, and Gamma MITs. This was a really fun service project because we got the opportunity to network with the men in the fraternity an got to know about them as well as perform service.

We also did another service project with another fraternity, Phi Kappa Theta. This service project involved our MITs and Theta's pledges as well as Gamma members and Theta brothers. We worked on our Project Linus blankets. Project Linus provides blankets for children in the hospital, so the service project involves sewing tags on the blankets. This was also fun because we got to know the brothers and pledges of Theta and we all got to perform the service project together. We had 4 large bags full of blankets ready to go by the end of the project.
