Kickin' It with Alpha Chi Raises Money for Domestic Violence Awareness

Each semester, the Delta Pi chapter hosts a philanthropy event to help raise funds and support for our national and local philanthropies, the Alpha Chi Omega Foundation, YWCA and Knoxville Family Justice Center.  This October, in coordination with Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we hosted our Second Annual Kickin' It with Alpha Chi kickball tournament encouraging the University of Tennessee community to come out in support of a cause near and dear to our hearts. Our sisters coached teams to victory and cheered after every home run. We enjoyed every minute getting to know other campus organizations and were moved by the support we received. We raised over $1,500 for our philanthropy and are excited to present the money to our local philanthropies. A special thanks to all the teams who played and to our VP of Philanthropy, Polly Ann, for organizing the event.

As always,

Go Vols & Go Alpha Chi

3rd Annual Dodging Domestic Violence Dodgeball Tournament

The end of March brought the sisters of Alpha Chi Omega our favorite philanthropy event- our annual Dodgeball tournament. Supporting the victims of domestic violence is a passion for us and it is wonderful to see our Greek community come together to help support our cause, as well. We had teams from several fraternities and sororities compete for the championship title this year! A huge congratulations to the men of Lambda Chi Alpha and the women of Kappa Kappa Gamma for taking first place. Our sisters had so much fun being team’s coaches, refs and loyal fan base. The proceeds we raised will benefit the Knoxville YWCA and we are so excited to present them with our donation!

As always,

Go Vols & Go Alpha Chi

kickin' it with alpha chi omega

philanthropy is at the core of our sisterhood, and each semester, we host at least one event to support the victims of domestic violence, both locally and nationally. last wednesday night, other chapters on campus and even some alpha chis participated in our first annual "kickin' it with alpha chi omega" kickball tournament at the inter-mural fields. all proceeds from the event went to support the knoxville family justice center. scroll through the pictures below and see how our VP of philanthropy, miss sarah missimer, put on a winning event to support our philanthropy!

our philanthropy event raising awareness for domestic violence and supporting the victims of domestic violence could not have come at a better time. in light of recent events, the conversation about the horrific impact of domestic violence has increased significantly and awareness of domestic violence has greatly risen. the white house released a new video, "it's on us," a sexual assault PSA that alpha chi omega as a sorority would like to share and encourage people to take the pledge to help keep men and women safe from sexual assault. visit http://itsonus.org/ for more information.
