National Efforts

All chapters and colonies, collegiate and alumni, are required to perform a defined number of service hours during the year as set forth in national and chapter bylaws.

Projects range from nationally sponsored causes to individual dedications, and chapters/individuals may be awarded for their efforts. Each member of the organization brings individual talents, skills and ideas to the organization, uniting in the spirit of service.

Project I.M.P.A.C.T. Areas

At each National Convention, two special project areas are chosen by the delegation for special emphasis during the following biennium. These areas, known as Project I.M.P.A.C.T. (Individuals Making Progress Across Communities Together), encourage participation by all members, and help to establish relations with other national charitable organizations.

During 2011-13 Biennium, the Project I.M.P.A.C.T. areas will focus on Youth With Disabilities & Diabetes Prevention and Awareness. There are numerous opportunities for chapters and colonies to get involved within the community.

Consider participating in local sporting events or help coach an individual or team through Special Olympics. You can tutor a child with a disability, increase awareness through community social events, visit training facilities, and promote acceptance through positive examples.
Fundraise research dollars through donations, community walks, and chapter sponsored events. Sponsor awareness at health fairs by educating others with healthy behaviors and up-to-date information on how to promote acceptance.
