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:
Local Campaign
Through the Kindly Hearts Initiative, the Theta Nu chapter of Alpha Xi Delta has partnered with the Children’s Home Society of North Carolina. Based in Greensboro, this organization helps foster children find their forever homes. Over 300 children exit the foster care system each year through Children’s Home Society programs. The organization also offers resources to help families by educating parents, empowering youth, supporting caregivers, and preserving families. They provide personalized training for foster parents to ensure parents feel confident that they are doing the absolute best for their children. Alpha Xi Delta is committed to supporting this organization through our various fundraising efforts throughout the year.
Favorite Fundraisers
Alpha Xi Delta fundraises for our philanthropies numerous times throughout the year! Our favorite events include an all you can eat Xiti dinner, Bump it Thump It (BITI) volleyball tournament, and participating in our national Letters of Love campaign!
