I know that the chapter I advise is always looking to assign sober sisters for events. Everyone is ALWAYS appreciate of those who volunteer.
Some GLOs/chapters aren't allowed to have an official sober sister program as their leadership perceives it as acknowledging that underage drinking occurs and acknowledging that incurs more risk for the organization. (Kind of like pretending that the Mafia doesn't exist by not mentioning it.) That being said, she can certainly make that offer in an unofficial capacity if she has a car and feels comfortable doing so.

The only "negative" here is that she's avoiding events with her sisters (and throwing dues money down the toilet).
