TRI SIGMA/MARCH OF DIMES - VIRTUAL MILITARY BABY SHOWER - Please support our national mission with March of Dimes to help supply baby shower items to our nation’s military families. -  Link to the Amazon Baby Shower

Hello Tri Sigma Sisters and friends. For Tri Sigma's 45th National Convention this June, the Tri Sigma Foundation invites all Sisters to join in supporting our partnership with March of Dimes by donating an item for our Military Baby Shower initiative. These items will go to support the March of Dimes Mission: Healthy Babies, which hosts baby showers for our American military forces. Ten to twenty military baby showers are hosted annually across the US for expecting military families. Each military family who attends receives a gift box filled with baby essentials. These showers help fill the gap for military families who are often stationed thousands of miles away from their home state and cannot easily be showered by their own families. It is our hope that Tri Sigmas nationwide (not just those

attending Convention) will give gifts to our nation's SMALLEST HEROES. Sisters can help with MISSION: HEALTHY BABIES by selecting a gift from our Amazon MILITARY BABY SHOWER REGISTRY. These items will be shipped to Tri Sigma National Headquarters ahead of Convention and then delivered to March Of Dimes. No worries about making room in your suitcase! Will you help us fulfill all 900 baby items? We need your help not only to donate an item for these baby showers but to also spread the word of our March Of Dimes Military Baby Shower efforts. Please share our baby registry link with Sigmas, friends, family and more! Thank you Tri Sigmas and friends for supporting March of Dimes MISSION: HEALTHY BABIES! This particular mission holds a special place in my
