LATE LAST year, the Burlingame PTK and Wellness Committee donated $500 to the KNI Group Home for its Christmas Party.  This money helps provide presents and the food for their adopted group home’s Christmas party. 

PTK alumnae Daniel Martin and his daughter, Aminah, donated an additional $200 from her birthday to KNI for Christmas.  She asked her friends and family to donate to KNI instead of giving her presents for her birthday.  Aminah was involved in several PTK activities, while her dad was a PTK chapter officer at  Allen.  

Martin is a student at Washburn University and a member of PTK Alumni .
