The Clasped Hands Fund Grant provides emergency financial assistance to alumnae who find themselves in financial distress. Need and circumstances determine the amount of each grant.
The Clasped Hands Fund started with contributions received at Grand Convention in 1993. The fund was endowed in 1997 thanks to the generosity of Deen Day Sanders, Beta Sigma—Mercer University. For many years, gifts to the Clasped Hands Fund were recognized with a silk violet tied to attendee nametags at Convention; a violet appliqué was introduced at the 150th Anniversary Convention in 2001.

The Abigail Davis Emergency Grant Fund provides grants of up to $3,500 for short-term assistance to collegians who are experiencing unforeseen financial difficulties. Grants must be used for tuition, books, or school fees. Grants may not be used for sorority dues or room and board.
This unique fund was established in 1917 in memory of Abigail Davis who served the sorority as an international officer and helped establish many of our oldest chapters. Since management of this fund was transferred to the Alpha Delta Pi Foundation in 1985, more than 300 collegiate members have benefited from this program.
