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:
The AmaXIng Challenge is Alpha Xi Delta’s signature fundraising event designed to raise funds and spread awareness for Autism Speaks. Throughout the year, Alpha Xi has two main fundraising events. Our Spring fundraising event is the AmaXIng Race. The Iota Tau chapter also hosts the Football FrenXI in the fall.
The AmaXIng Race is a spin off of the Amazing Race show. Volunteers sign up in teams and compete in various challenges, like a pie eating contest!
The Football FrenXI is a fun event where various greek organizations, clubs, and teams face off against each other in a bracketed flag football tournament!
During the month of April, we light numerous buildings up in blue, like our library, to spread awareness for Autism! This past year, the Iota Tau chapter also completed an Autism Speaks Walk in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. We took some strides to complete the puzzle!
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.
