It probably makes them a little clueless.

I agree with you. As a former Executive Director for the Arthritis Foundation, I can verify that it is a harder "ask" than those fundraising for women's or children's charities. It's true, but I'm not sure much of that translates into which sorority you pick.

Cool. I didn't know that about you. I don't know how much philanthropy day plays into the decision of which chapter a woman chooses, either. Really, it should just give a woman an idea of how philanthropic the group really is. If a group barely talks about philanthropy, than maybe they don't do much. It doesn't really matter what the actual philanthropy is. Are you really going to kill yourself everytime you have to raise money for old people or help women in need or help patients with kidney disease? Kids aren't the only people who need help. Is arthritis a worthy cause only if it hurts children?
