Fund Raising vs. Service Based Philanthropy

[sunnygirl]

While I whole-heartedly agree, for the sake of argument, what happens when the success of the fundraiser/philanthropy is due to the tremendous amount of work by 3-4 members? While volunteering on a regular basis is a great idea, how feasible is it going to be to get a good number from chapter to volunteer on a regular basis- especially in a chapter with lots of student leaders and althetes? We try very hard to get a good mix in (a major philanthropy each semester and weekly service projects), but sometimes it is hard to get a good turnout with everyone's schedules.
