Philanthropy

Alpha Phi Foundation

In 1956, Alpha Phi was one of the first women's fraternities to establish a Foundation. 

Demonstrating the philanthropic spirit of love and charity intended by our Founders, the Foundation was created as a trust to award grants specifically for scholarship and cardiac aid. Today, the original priorities of Alpha Phi Foundation remain.

The Foundation is well known and respected internationally as a prominent philanthropic leader in the Greek community. We completed a ten million dollar campaign for leadership in 2010, the largest in National Panhellenic Conference (NPC) history. 

OUR MISSION:
Advancing women's lives through the power of philanthropy.
 

Our Philanthropic Work

As a chapter, we pride ourselves in our contribution to our philanthropy. This year we hosted our second annual Red Dress Gala. Sisters invited their family and friends to come in support of our chapter and women's heart health. We had videos and speakers from Alpha Phi National come to be a part of this amazing night. This event included silent auctions, live auctions, raffles, dinner and more! We raised over $12,000 from this event, in one night! 

 

We also raise money for our philanthropy through our Wing Bowl. Sororities and fraternities create teams to compete in a wing eating competition all in the spirit of philanthropy. This year our Wing Bowl raised over $600!

 

We have also hosted events such as Alpha Phiesta, an all you can eat Mexican Food buffet and Alpha Phifa, a soccer tournament with all proceeds going towards our philanthropy as well!

 

We also support the American Heart Association by volunteering at the Baltimore Heart Walk every fall! 

 

 

The American Heart Association

With an emphasis on women's heart health, The Alpha Phi Foundation works closely with that of The American Heart Association. The Alpha Phi Foundation plays an important role in informing its members on the importance of heart health.

 

Heart disease is the #1 killer of women in North America and the Alpha Phi Foundation thought it would be fitting to work with an international organization of women to help fight it.
