Alpha Xi Delta’s Philanthropic Focus

 

 

 

 

 

The Kindly Hearts Initiative

The Kindly Hearts Initiative serves as the umbrella to our national philanthropic focus of supporting children and teens experiencing foster care or homelessness. Alpha Xi Deltas across the country support two Key Impact Organizations, FosterClub and StandUp for Kids, making a national and regional difference under the umbrella of our focus.

Letters of Love

All Alpha Xi Delta chapters and alumnae associations participate in Letters of Love, Alpha Xi Delta’s national letter writing fundraising campaign. Held annually during the month of November this campaign benefits Alpha Xi Delta’s two Key Impact Organizations, StandUp for Kids and FosterClub.

 

Our Chapter's Impact:

 

 

AmaXing Challenges are events put on by Alpha Xi Delta chapters all across the nation. Such events are Football FrenXi and Xi Man. Each AmaXing Challenge has its own spin on raising funds for the Kindly Hearts Initiative. Although many chapters across the nation usually stick to an annual AmaXing Challenge, the Iota Eta chapter at UTEP has pride in offering a variety of these events each and every year. In doing so, we get the chance to engage the campus community and the El Paso community in different events where they look forward to knowing we will continue to be different.

Football FrenXi

Football FrenXi is a flag football tournament comprised of about 7 teams. The tournament is played recreationally rather than for a big prize all for the purpose of donating money to the El Paso Center for Children among other local organizations.

Xi Man

Xi Man a male pageant that typically has a large turnout from the Greek males on campus. Each contestant was required to create a profile on a website we created specifically for the event. On that website people could electronically make donations to local organizations that benefit children and youth experiencing Forster care or homelessness making fundraising a large amount of money that much more attainable. In addition, the contestants had side competitions leading up to the actual event.

Tabling

Not only does Alpha Xi Delta hold big events every semester, we also table on campus in order to raise more awareness for our philanthropy. We also use the overwhelming popularity of social media to our advantage in an effort to spread as much awareness as possible.                     

 

Additional Philanthropic Events

Additional events we coordinate throughout the semester may involve group and individual service project opportunities, donation drives, profit share nights at local restaurants, food fundraising events and more! Follow us on social media to see event announcements and information.
