Raleigh NC has an 'alum triangle'...You can sponsor her as an alum initiate and then she can be introduced - via e-mail to the area alum group...Check out this link

Or you or your friend can simply call EO and ask for specifics. I sponsored my mom from Oregon and she lives in California - I was there for her initiation OF COURSE! Your friend can meet the alums in the area and then arrange for an alum initiation this fall...
How exciting all the way around! Let me know how it goes...Good luck!
