Tri Delta has raised more than $75 million for St. Jude since 1999, and as a result of our latest pledge, St. Jude to named its short-term housing facility on the St. Jude campus Tri Delta Place. Our collegiate chapters are on the front lines of raising funds and awareness for St. Jude on their campuses and in their communities.
