For many years you have ably and enthusiastically undertaken positions on numerous projects for the chapter, region, and national levels. Your dedication and commitment to our organization and to Brandeis University are exemplary. 

“The Four Sisters”

It is clear why the Delray Beach, Trails Wellworth, and Wycliffe Chapters have come to be known as “The Four Sisters.” As a “family,” you have joined together and worked in harmony on combined Book and Author events. Your spirit of cooperation and collaboration are highly commendable.

By consistently promoting our fundraising mission, you inspire others to financially support this outstanding school.

Your dedication and total commitment to the BNC and the University are deserving of praise.
