Okay, that's several questions, all good ones, and I'll try to answer them... 
Why do some people feel so strongly that they have EVERY badge ever made?
Well, that's one I can't answer!
Yes, I know they are the property of that organization, but what does it really matter if someone has a collection of pins and badges?
In Kappa's case, badges are not the property of the organization. And in my opinion, there is nothing wrong with having a collection of pins or badges as long as the badges are not the stolen property of someone else.
Aren't there more important issues facing young women that need the financial support that who owns a badge?
The Fraternity is not funding badge rescue, it's individual members who choose to purchase them with their own funds. Safe to say, those same members are also frequent contributors to the Kappa Kappa Gamma Foundation (which is the best funded foundation of any Greek-letter organization's, btw. 
)
I don't mean this to criticize organizations who have formal programs in any way, I really just wonder why so much money is being spent on getting these badges.
The organizations don't have the formal programs, it's individual members who form groups. So, it's their money!
