If you (directed towards everyone, not one person or org in particular) feel that your organization or chapter has no cultural relevance to the community that you serve, then maybe it is time to teach them why XYZ is so important. If they are not familiar with college culture, then maybe you should explain it to them.
Let them know just why you are there teaching their children to read, why you clean up their streets, and why you wear those letters on your chest. Don't underestimate them by saying that they wouldn't understand without giving them the chance. Give them the opportunity to find out more about your organization and greek life in general. You never know, you may be the one to inspire that person to go to college and get an education.
