Do fraternities and sororities participate in community service?
Every year fraternity men and sorority women give thousands of hours of service to the community. Members donate time to help with projects such as Habitat for Humanity, reading to underprivileged children, Adopt-A-Highway and the Special Olympics. Fraternities and sororities also sponsor fund-raising activities for charitable organizations. Each fraternity and sorority chapter has its own national philanthropy, which it supports on an ongoing basis. Chapters have special events to raise money for their particular projects. Some of the projects that chapters are involved with include raising money for children with terminal illnesses, women with breast cancer and victims of domestic violence.
