About this Event
The sisters of the Zeta Kappa chapter of Sigma Sigma Sigma at Montclair State University will be holding their eighth annual tricky tray event, Raffles For Robbie On October 1st, 2023. event. All of the proceeds made from our tricky tray will go directly to our philanthropies the Robbie Page Memorial Foundation and the March of Dimes.
In its early years, the Robbie Page Memorial Foundation served to raise awareness and support for various polio research projects to help eradicate the disease. After a cure for polio was discovered, the foundation began raising awareness and funding child play therapy in children's hospitals. Play therapy gives terminally ill children the opportunity to experience childhood activities and also aids in teaching them ways to accept and cope with the illnesses and treatments they are enduring. Therapeutic play is a tool used in these hospitals to help to decrease stress and anxiety as well as help the child developmentally.
The March of Dimes, which similarly started in support of the disease polio, is now dedicated to funding research around the genetic causes of birth defects, promoting newborn screening, and educating medical professionals and the public about the practices for a healthy pregnancy.
With your support along with our efforts as the Zeta Kappa chapter at Montclair State University, we can help to provide children and families the support that they deserve in their time of need!
