"To me, earning the Golden Opportunity Scholarship was a life-changing opportunity. Thanks to the scholarship, my advisor, and donors like YOU, I was able to start my PTK journey! PTK has been my “safe place” ever since — a place where strangers turned into my biggest supporters and are ...now part of my chosen family.
Because of previous donations, I've been able to accomplish remarkable things that I never believed possible! Let’s keep creating more International Officers! Donate today!!!”

Today is Service Thursday! Let's hear from International President Annalise Smith on her favorite service project.
"For Clark State College’s 2023’s College Project, I had the privilege of running an initiative coined “Love Letters to Ourselves”. Often times, ...it’s the little things people hate about themselves that we love so dearly. But, we sometimes forget, all the things we hate so deeply about ourselves are beautiful to the ones who love us.
During the multiple sessions I was so lucky to be able to facilitate, participants were encouraged to view themselves in the eyes of someone who loves them. We wanted to promote an abstract level of self love while drawing to the importance of mental health.
Through the College Project, you have the chance to create a service initiative that makes a difference. Not only was I able to witness the slightest, but greatly powerful shift in the mental health narrative, but I also felt the difference that it made within myself. I will always hold “Love Letters to Ourselves” dearly and am encouraging you to take a step to practice being a servant leader- it might just change your life like it did mine." -Annalise Smith
