| Alpha Delta Pi women, as well as friends and family members of Alpha
Delta Pi, show their philanthropic spirit in many ways. Each year,
chapters, alumnae associations, and outstanding volunteers give back
to their community through a number of different events. Alpha Delta
Pi's international philanthropy is Ronald McDonald House Charities.
This commitment was made in 1979 and continues today. Since beginning
its association, Alpha Delta Pi has contributed over $2 million to
this worthwhile effort. Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) supports
Ronald McDonald Houses in local communities, as well as funding grants
to other non-profit organizations whose programs focus on children
in need. The function of these homes is to provide a support, comfort,
and a "home away from home" for the families of seriously
ill children who are receiving treatment in nearby hospitals. Alpha

Our chapter's philanthropy is ADPI-athlon held every year. This event
joins all Florida State Greek organizations for a fun-filled day of "pie" events. Each organization is on a rotation schedule
paired with other organizations to compete in eight different events,
which all consist of some sort of "pie", such as, pie and
go seek, obstacle course, dizzy bat, and a pie eating contest. The
day turns into all participants.
This year we raised $2,665.00 for RMH! |
