What irks me is when locals are looked down upon by the large and international organizations. Locals are just as important as the large organizations and contribute just as much.
We may not have as long of a history and we may not be international but its not the size thats important or how long you have been around-its the values and spirit of your organization. Thats why we join these organizations and why they are important to us.
Where I am from the Greek Community as become less of a community-and this saddens me. Its not only the organization that makes being greek special its also the community that surronds you-that we all understand why being greek is important and valued .
