Physical & Mental Health Program

Vidalia Alumnae Chapter is committed to improving the health and well-being of the people in our community. The chapter has participated in a number of organizational walks supporting a healthier lifestyle, including the St. Jude Walkathon, Relay for Life, “Walk a Mile in My Shoes” for Breast Cancer and we passed out literature and breast cancer paraphernalia in Vidalia and Ferriday. We held several workshops such as Integrated Mental Health and Testimonies from persons who had COVID. We donated water to the schools in Concordia, Catahoula, and Tensas Parishes. We donated blanket throws to the elderly and shut-ins, especially to dialysis patients. We donated boxes with food and drink items for a Thanksgiving dinner to several needy families. The chapter supports a number of partnering organizations with monetary donations, including St. Jude, the American Diabetes Association, and the March of Dimes.
