I have a question, If a person was not in an organization, would they know what you do? I am asking because where our undergraduate chapter is (San Francisco State University), I really Cannot determine one non-NPHC organization from another (except the Muticultural or Academically Specialized<Exanple: Nursing> organizations).
I am only asking because Before I was in College, the NPHC organizations had a following and many Members of the NPHC had knowledge of them since High School. It may be due to the large Alum/Graduate Presence.
Thanks for sharing,

It depends. Some groups have more high profile events- for instance, DG's Anchor Splash (an event each chapter has to raise money for one of their philanthropies), that's a big deal in the Greek community and may involve those outside the community. In KD, we have our Shamrock Project- each chapter and alumnae association holds an event that, like DG, involves those outside of our group.
But a lot of groups just do things and keep a low profile, out of the spotlight. And maybe some groups don't want to be seen for just one charity, as there are others that they work towards as well, and don't want them to be overshadowed.
Perhaps a difference is that NPHC seem to dedicate themselves to one philathropy that's their big thing, but NPC's usually contribute to many different ones. Or all the NPC/NIC greeks on campus get together to raise money for one local charity- such as the article I posted earlier today in the Greek Life forum about a Dance Marathon at my alma matter.
