Established in 1901 as Tri Kappa’s first chapter, the Bloomington Alpha Chapter is a women’s philanthropic organization dedicated to promoting charity, culture, and education. Our members bring together their time, talents, and commitment to service to support local students and organizations and strengthen the Bloomington community.

Our fundraisers—including Blingo, flower sales, and cheeseball sales—give community members and businesses opportunities to participate in that mission. Proceeds help fund scholarships and community grants, turning the generosity of our supporters into meaningful local assistance.

Through scholarships, we help graduating high school seniors and continuing learners pursue further education. Our grants support local nonprofit organizations and programs that advance charity, culture, and education throughout Bloomington and Monroe County.
