Alpha Phi Omega

Alpha Alpha Delta

Alpha Alpha Delta Chapter at Salisbury University in Maryland and members of the SU Reserve Officers Training Corps (ROTC) held a 10-hour donation drive at Walmart in Salisbury to benefit Operation We Care.

Founded in 2007 by the Eastern Shore Chapter of Harley Davidson Owners, Operation We Care sends care packages to deployed military troops worldwide and provides support for local families dealing with challenges while their loved ones are deployed.

The students collected a van-full of donated items and sold 100 military-themed rubber ducks to help defer the cost of overseas postage. SU's New Student Reader Program donated some 150 books for the cause, while the Education Specialties and Social Work departments also made financial contributions. In all, Alpha Alpha Delta raised more than $680 to help offset postage costs. The Fraternity also assisted with Operation We Care's November packing event and is planning another drive for Operation We Care in May.
