What We Do
If you are a student who likes to give back to others, look no further. Fraternities and sororities are some of the best contributors to service and philanthropy in the campus community. Members develop a resonant understanding of service.
For example, over the past 5 years, the Greek community has annually engaged in over 10,000 hours of community service and raised thousands of dollars to benefit charities of various causes. Greeks are able to make an impact in the local, regional, national, and even international community. As a member of a Greek organization, you will have the opportunity through structured community service programs to make a difference in the lives of those in need.
Spring Storm, the Greek Week Philanthropy Day, and Fall Frenzy are the largest community service projects involving Greeks. Students paint, dig, build, clean, serve meals, and much more. The Greek community prioritizes taking the time to make the world around them a better place.
The Greek Community is committed to raising money for local and national causes.
