Actually, Alpha Gamma Delta's Official Philanthropy is the Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation. According to IHQ's website:

The MISSION of the Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation, Inc. is two-fold:

To generate financial resources to fund the educational, philanthropic and leadership purposes of Alpha Gamma Delta
Fraternity

To support those purposes, for both members and non-members, through financial grants for scholarships; leadership training; diabetes research, education and equipment; emergency financial assistance; wellness issues; and programs that enhance high personal standards of ethics and values.


I don't really know how many hours a semester I spent as a collegian doing Philanthropy. Oftentimes we'd hold fundraisers here and there in order to send money to Foundation, but most of the time it was spent doing community philanthropy (visiting Shriners' Hospital at Halloween, volunteering at the Academy of Arts, etc.).

Our alumnae chapter has always been strong in this department. Annually, the alumnae chapter hosts "The Grape Escape" usually at a local restaurant, with a Silent Auction with goods donated by alumnae, their family members, and members of the business community. This fundraiser has always proven to be successful in generating funds to send to Foundation.
