Speaking for the NPC, they set boundries of Recruitment (and other) behavior that can lead to tangible benefits. Obviously, a chapter of 100 people is easier financially to operate than one with 20, and NPC's goal is to level the playing field, so to speak. NPC on the local level sets the Recruitment standards to "frills" or "no-frills" Recruitment, making a small chapter less conspicuous for the lack of party favors, etc.

As for the individual GLOs, most, if not all, NPC sororities have a set philanthropy - a great boost to the dying art of volunteerism. Also, many have foundations for scholarships (both for tuition and just life in general) or programs such as AOII's Life Loyal or the Alpha Delta Pi Foundation, both of which insure a lifelong commitment to both the members and the sorority.
