Community: Panhellenic holds scholarship event

Deb Ann Orfalea, president of Glendale Area Alumnae Panhellenic and member of Zeta Tau Alpha, welcomed members and guests to her Glendale home over the holidays. Attending from Burbank were Georgine Archer, of Delta Gamma, and Jackie Dwight, of Alpha Xi Delta.

The nonprofit group serves Burbank, Glendale, La Crescenta and surrounding communities with member volunteers from many of the 26 sororities recognized by the National Panhellenic Conference. The group supports young women pursuing higher education.

Area high school senior women who are planning to attend a four-year college or university are invited to attend a Scholarship Social on Feb. 20 at Salem Lutheran Church. Attendees will hear about scholarship opportunities as well as what sorority membership offers young women. Reservations are required.

To raise scholarship funds, the group organizes an annual luncheon. This year, the event will be on March 22 at Oakmont Country Club. . The Towne Singers Chamber Choir will entertain. The cost to attend is $60 or $35 for children 12 and younger.
