The hardest part about being an alumni is being away from your "home" chapter. Each local alumni chapter should evolve to participate with it's collegiate chapter as is possible for the alumni members. For your group, it may be hard to get together for a big event, but you may have enough members paying dues to sponsor a small scholarship for a collegiate member. Or perhaps you have several members still located near the collegiate chapter who help with rush events or professional development sessions. Alumni can serve as great speakers at meetings.

Maybe your alumni and collegiate chapters can set up a bulletin board similar to this one so that alumni can network w/ collegiates. That way, you could keep the girls posted on internship opportunities w/ your company and give them moral support when the chapter encounters the typical problems every chapter faces.

Lastly, consider signing up to be a member of the National Mentor program. The forms to sign up for that are on the nationsl website.
