T ri Sigma is deeply saddened to announce that Siena Marie Brachelli, a new member at Delta Psi–St. Joseph’s University, passed away January 31, 2026, following an automobile accident. She was a 2024 graduate of Notre Dame High School in Lawrenceville, New Jersey, and was a sophomore majoring in political science at SJU. Though she had only recently accepted a bid to join Tri Sigma, Siena was already known for her kindness and ability to bring joy and comfort to those around her.  “Siena made connections with us all quickly, because she loved deeply. We know she will forever remain in our sisterhood and continuously be remembered through every act of love we will share with one another,” shared Chapter President Devin Duffy on behalf of the Delta Psi Chapter. Tri Sigma’s national staff has been working with local volunteers and the Chapter President to ensure chapter members receive the support they need during this time. “In this time of great sadness, may our members at the Delta Psi Chapter find strength and comfort in each other and the bonds of sisterhood,” said National President Lauren Moran. “As we honor Siena’s memory, we also mourn for those who loved her.” A gathering for family and friends will be held Saturday, February 7, 2026, at St. David the King Parish in Princeton Junction, New Jersey. In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorial contributions be made to the 2024 Memorial Scholarship Fund at Notre Dame High School, 601 Lawrence Road, Lawrence Township, NJ, 08648. Her obituary may be read here . Those who wish to send letters of condolence to the Brachelli family may send them to Tri Sigma National Headquarters, 1506 E. Franklin St., Suite 300, Chapel Hill, NC, 27514.

Tri Sigma is deeply saddened to announce that Alexandra “Ally” Jean Blattner, a member of the Epsilon Kappa Chapter at the University of Wisconsin–Oshkosh, entered Omega Chapter on Feb. 5, 2026, as the result of a skiing accident. She was a 2024 graduate of Neenah High School in Neenah, Wisconsin. Ally was initiated into the Epsilon Kappa Chapter on March 16, 2025, and was a sophomore studying pre-nursing and psychology. In addition to serving on her chapter’s Honor Council, she was also Vice President of Recruitment for UWO’s College Panhellenic Council and served as a Senator for the Oshkosh Student Government. “We are all so lucky to get to call Ally our sister. She not only made an impact in our lives but all across our campus community,” said Epsilon Kappa Chapter President Tori Deptula.  Tri Sigma’s national staff has been working with volunteers, the Chapter President, and local alumnae chapters to ensure members receive support during this difficult time. We wish to extend our appreciation to the university for providing space for our members to gather and ensuring grief counseling services are available for members.  “During this tragic and heartbreaking time, our hearts are with Ally’s family and her sisters at our Epsilon Kappa Chapter,” said National President Lauren Moran. “As they navigate this unimaginable grief, it is my hope they will find comfort in knowing Ally’s compassion and leadership will forever inspire all who loved her.” A gathering for family and friends will be held Thursday, Feb. 12, 2026, at St. Joseph Catholic Church in Appleton, WI. In lieu of flowers, her family requests a donation be made in Ally’s name to the Tri Sigma Foundation or March of Dimes. Her obituary may be read here .

Since launching the Tri Sigma Foundation’s first comprehensive campaign at our 47th National Convention in June 2025, members have stepped up with passion to invest in Tri Sigma’s future.  They Did. You Can. We Will. invites every member to consider the lasting impact Tri Sigma has made in their lives. From our eight young Founders in 1898 to the newest sisters joining in 2026, our sorority has uplifted, inspired, and empowered generations of women.  WOMEN MAKING A DIFFERENCE We are deeply thankful for the generous donors who have already pledged their support. These trailblazers are redefining what it means to give back, fueling the innovative resources our sisters need to thrive now and for generations to come. See the inspiring individuals making their mark within Tri Sigma . PROGRESS BY THE NUMBERS As of Feb. 1, 2026, the Tri Sigma Foundation has raised $8,612,813 toward this historic campaign. Here’s a snapshot of our current campaign commitments:  Restricted Use Funds (8%): Gifts earmarked to support specific areas, such as scholarships, sorority program grants, and other initiatives aligned with our mission.  Ever True Fund (24%): Unrestricted gifts that support our entire mission and can be used where most needed at any given moment.  Estate Gifts (68%): A deferred commitment to include the Foundation as a beneficiary in your will, trust, estate, or life insurance plans. Though funds only become available after the donor’s passing, commitments of this kind provide long-term security and enable us to plan confidently for tomorrow.   While deferred commitments secure our future, gifts to restricted-use funds and the Ever True Fund empower us to meet urgent needs and make an immediate difference. CURRENT IMPACT They Did. You Can. We Will. is a campaign with impact that resonates today and will echo into tomorrow. Thanks to the generosity of our members, the Tri Sigma Foundation is already turning vision into action: Increased Leadership Training  We are truly grateful for the chance to expand our investment in the sorority’s leadership and educational programs . Because of your support, the Foundation has boosted funding for transformative opportunities like The Academy for collegiate leaders, Competency Certifications for every collegiate member, and Virtual Leadership Seminars for both alumnae and collegians.  We are also thrilled to announce a new chapter in leadership and education: The Julie Lammel Leadership Endowment . This fund will provide grants to chapters, opening doors to educational opportunities and leadership training.  Discover how you can endow excellence.   Greater Scholarship Support  Since the campaign’s quiet launch in July 2023, donors have made it possible to endow six new scholarships, offering annual awards to Tri Sigma members. This investment is already opening doors for collegiate women, celebrating achievement, and making college more accessible. The six new endowments are: The Fowler Family Scholarship  The Paula M. Gillis Memorial Scholarship  The Minoski-Runac Family Scholarship  The Joyce Newcom O'Daniel Scholarship  The Kaye Schendel Scholarship  The Winnie Warner Alpha Beta Scholarship    Learn more about endowing excellence. Mental Health Support and Personal Development Resources  Mental health is one of the most pressing challenges young women face today. Thanks to increased campaign support, the Foundation has invested in the sorority’s Health Promotion Program and Mental Health First Aid, empowering members to care for their own well-being and confidently support others. With these programs, Tri Sigma is closing the gap between what our members need and what campus resources provide. Together, Tri Sigma and the Foundation are dedicated to nurturing well-being through focused initiatives and expanded support. Explore Tri Sigma’s Culture of Caring.
