Thank you ladies so much for your replies!! However, we have tried to reach out to Nationals in the past and they haven't really helped much. I was on chapter council the first year we moved into the house. Our housing is a special case within Kappa Delta. Our house isn't owned by KD or the University, but a private company, and they are the ones that keep raising the rent, not us.

When we first started to have concerns Kim Flood Ryan came to talk to council and come up with solutions, but basically came up with that we had to listen to whatever our house corp said. I'm trying to get on our house corp so we can have the voice of a young alumnae, but they are somewhat hesitant to allow that.

Also, VP of membership, Betty Mulkey lives in the same city we are located and promised us that she would be at our recruitment last year, but didn't come because she had to attend homecoming for one of our nearby chapters. (that is doing VERY well)

ALSO, our house holds 32 girls, and that is exactly the number of girls in chapter right now. Total is 75 and when I was first in chapter we had over 95. It is impossible for many of our women to live in the house now, so we are obviously below capacity, and the company that owns our house says they will take the letters of the house if it falls any lower.

Its just heartbreaking to know that I really can't do anything to help my sisters out.

Thanks again for your ideas!!!

AOT,
Steph
