Frequently asked questions

Philanthropy is very important in sororities, as in all of Greek life. Typically, all members join in to raise funds through events like car washes or online fundraising campaigns to support charitable causes. 

Whether they support education, health-related initiatives, or environmental conservation efforts, Greek organizations aim to raise awareness among other college students and community members about communities in need or issues that matter.

Fraternity fundraising ideas typically align with the organization’s values and priorities. Common philanthropic initiatives include supporting local charities or nonprofits, contributing to national or international humanitarian organizations, funding scholarships for students in need, and organizing service projects.

To raise money, fraternities and sororities use various fundraising strategies tailored to their goals and resources. Fundraising ideas for Greek life may include hosting charity events such as galas, benefit concerts, or themed parties where they can charge an entry fee. They may also plan a fun walk/run, participate in social media challenges, or ask supporters to simply give via a fundraising page. 

Sorority and fraternity fundraising efforts often involve teaming up with local businesses, alumni networks, or corporate sponsors to maximize their impact.
