For the third consecutive year the Nashville Alumnae Chapter and the Monroe Carrell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt have joined together to celebrate our motto "Sigma Serves Children". Nashville Alumnae received a grant from the Robbie Page Memorial Fund to purchase a Vecta Sensory Equipment Package for the patients at Vanderbilt.
This equipment will assist child life staff in providing auditory, visual, olfactory and vestibular stimulation to children with developmental disabilities and/or traumatic brain injury in the outpatient clinic. Nashville Alums are proud of our association with Vanderbilt Children's Hospital.

PHILANTHROPY UPDATE
Nashville Alumnae Chapter is currently on Honor Roll status. This would not have been possible without the generous contributions made to the Sigma Foundation and Robbie Page Memorial at Founders Day and throughout the year.

The Tri Sigma Nashville Alumnae Chapter has made the following contributions in 2011:

• On January 22, members served breakfast to families staying at the Ronald McDonald House in Nashville. Family members had children hospitalized at Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt.

•  In February, our chapter collected children's books to donate to Book 'Em Nashville.

•  In April, our chapter made a donation to the Sigma Sigma Sigma Foundation in honor of Beth Moore and a donation to Robbie Page Memorial.
• In May, our chapter delivered a $150 donation to the Robbie Page Play Therapy Room at North Carolina Children's Hospital at Chapel Hill.

Thanks to all members who volunteer their time to make a difference in the lives of others in the Nashville community and remember our motto "Sigma Serves Children."
