Help for recruitment ideas!

[briezyast16]

Hi!
I was recently made the recruitment chair and I want to do something fun and different. I was wondering if any of you guys have any ideas to do for philanthropy night and preference night. Alpha Sigma Tau's philanthropy is Pine Mountain Settlement School, which offers educational, cultural and aid to those local low preforming students and our service is Habitat for Humanity. Please help I'm trying to come with with creative crafts for and ideas!! Thank you so much!

There's another AST on this board! I was beginning to think I was the only one.

For philanthropy night, my chapter usually does a craft for a community service project that's a little more local. We talk about Pine Mountain and Habitat, but we do something that's unrelated. For example, we just had our philanthropy night on Monday, and everyone made cards for the kids of THON (http://www.thon.org/), the Penn State Panhellenic/IFC Dance Marathon that raises money to help fight pediatric cancer.

For preference, what exactly are you looking to do? Are you a new chapter that hasn't done a preference party before? Or are you looking to change one that you already do? I know that there are some ideas in the Recruitment Handbook under Officer Resources on the national website. It's from 1999, but it's still VERY useful.

Hope this helps.
