I agree financial for some people is a problem. I know I set aside money for my dues and my chapter has a payment plan to help with those who want to stay financial.
I agree with Akatude about making visiting Sorority members feel comfortable and also about treating a non-financial sorors as sorors.
One thing that hasn't been brought up yet is validation. When I run into a non-financial soror they often feel that the a grad chapter doesn't need them or a chapter will get more members through another intake. It might help if you find common ground outside of the sorority/fraternity with that person--maybe they are into sports, music, or another mutual interest. It's another way of saying that we are about you and you are not just a number. One time I sent a soror a thinking of you card and she drove with three other sorors three hours to a meeting. She ended up reactivating and we stay in touch.
