Nuts

In the spring of 2023, the Knightstown Alpha Zeta Chapter of Tri Kappa voted to designate $5,000 for our first annual community grants. Since 2023, the Alpha Zeta chapter has granted $20,000 to nine local nonprofit organizations.

The Alpha Zeta chapter sees the importance in providing annual community grants. To make a greater impact, a Trivia Night fundraiser was created. The event not only provides a FUN and profitable evening, but also builds an incredible amount of awareness to the chapter and the local nonprofits. The event and our grantmaking would not be possible without the support of sponsors and the community!
