Rec etiquette

My friend's little sister (Let's call her FLS for now) knows women from some sororities personally who will write her recs. However, as part of her "asking around" I will be able to connect her with some alumnae from chapters of certain sororities for which she will still need recs. For the alumnae of these sororities, what is the etiquette of this process?

I am thinking (and PLEASE correct any part of this as I do not know much about recs):

1. I ask my contacts if I may give FLS their e-mail.
2. If yes, give FLS their emails.
3. FLS contacts sorority alumna asking for a rec.
4. FLS emails alumna picture/transcript/activity resume along with a stamped addressed envelope in which to send the rec? Anything else? I am wondering how useful her HS transcript would be since recruitment is deferred and the grades that count are from this semester (she has a great HS GPA though).
5. FLS and alumna arrange for a phone interview or to meet to get coffee or lunch if the interview is to take place during winter break (or should she not wait that long?).
6. Alumna writes rec and acknowledges it has been sent.
7. FLS writes thank-you note to alumna.
8. FLS maybe lets alumna know where she ended up at the end of recruitment.
