Valentine's Day

Think about the occasions for which you get or send greeting cards. According to the Greeting Card Association, the December holidays are the busiest card giving occasions. What about when someone is sick? Or, when someone celebrates an important life milestone like a graduation, wedding or baby?

But, the one holiday that might slip your mind is actually the second most popular greeting card holiday - Valentine’s Day!

Valentine’s Day cards account for more than 150 million of all greeting cards sold each year. That’s no surprise! We love telling our friends and family that we love them and how much we love them.

Alpha Xi Delta’s Communications and Marketing team takes special time each year to make a custom designed Valentine’s Day card that honors both the recipient’s and the giver’s love, not only for Alpha Xi Delta, but for each other.

The saying on this year’s card is from Alpha Xi Delta’s “Sweetheart Song”. The song and music was written by Eleanor Wichelman Jebens, a 1925 initiate of the Sigma Chapter at the University of Iowa. The last line of the song is

"I love you, my Alpha Xi girl."

Take a moment this Valentine’s Day to let your Alpha Xi girl know that you love her. Send a Foundation Valentine’s Day card, and a few words of your own, to make the perfect gift for any Alpha Xi Delta on your Valentine list.

Every year, parents, Sisters and friends show their daughters, Sisters and loved ones how special they are by sending Alpha Xi Delta’s custom-designed Valentine’s Day card, and we want to give you plenty of time to place your order to ensure your special someone receives her card on February 14. The Foundation Valentine Program kicks off today and runs through February 3, 2017. 

For a tax-deductible gift of $20, your Alpha Xi Delta will receive our custom-designed valentine card (shown above) with your personalized message included. Your gift to the Alpha Xi Delta Foundation will remind your favorite Alpha Xi Delta of how special she is to you, and it will help Alpha Xi Delta inspire women to realize their potential.
