We front girls money for things so we don't have to collect individual checks/cash, but girls take their sweet time to pay back. They just don't feel accountable towards anything. In your chapter, how do you make your members feel accountable for what they chose to do?
I feel like it's a problem with getting girls excited to participate in everything for some reason and I just don't understand why.

Stop acting like an ATM or a credit card. If they don't pay, they don't go. It sounds harsh but if you let people walk all over you, they aren't going to respect you. You've given them permission to keep doing that. Drop the hammer and stop extending lines of credit.
If this is the only way that you can fund philanthropy events, it's time to increase your dues.
