Philanthropy

Dragon Slayer · #1 05-29-2008, 01:36 AM

I just took over the philanthropy chair here at the Central Missouri chapter and I was wondering what some of the successful philanthropies you guys put on are? I'm putting together a Dunk-A-Delta philanthropy this fall during one of the new student fairs at the school. Basically we're bringing the Delta Zetas in with us to do a dunk-tank that we're going to also use as a recruitment event, we're sending our half of the money into the Jimmy V Foundation. Other philanthropies we put on are a Easter egg hunt with the Boys and Girls Club in the Spring and a Kick-Balls to Save Balls tournament for the Jimmy V Foundation. Anyways if anyone has some cool ideas let me know cause we're trying to bring the chapter back to life and I think if we can get our name out there in a positive way we can make Delta Chi one of the biggest fraternities on campus.

Thanks guys,

At Missouri State, we put together a Powder Puff Flag Football Tournament in the fall. The sororities usually send a couple of teams each and its an all day event. Recently we've been going after non-greeks also. It helps to get sponsored drinks/food/DJ/Trophies. Each team is assigned a coach from our chapter and work with them before up-to the day of. We also ref the games and sell shirts on the side. We usually raise around $1000 every year and its always a good time.

Really old thread, but the lack of activity on our board pains me...

We do an annual golf tournament in the spring for Jimmy V. This year we raised a good amount of money considering the economy. We want to keep the golf tournament but do an event for Jimmy V in the fall that is more student focused.

The website has some really awesome, albeit underused resources!

I thought some of our Northern Virginia GCers might be interested in playing this year, please let me know if you're interested - we have some fantastic prizes!
