Clearly, neither the OP nor her organization are concerned with the moral, ethical, or legal implications of this activity, and she has gotten more than enough feedback, cautions, and ideas to go and do what she believes is right. I don't think anyone is going to change the OP's mind on why this is a bad idea (even if the chapter is making it a requirement when it clearly should not be conducted in this manner), so why is everyone still wasting their breath?

Honestly, because I was (briefly) genuinely concerned that the chapter is taking advantage of the OP.

But then I recalled some of the other threads in which the OP has been given advice.

Honey, you've cast too wide a net out there. Better pull back and get out of the light for a while.

I honestly have no clue what you are talking about.

I am reminded of the episode of "I Love Lucy" where Lucy and Ethel decide to make some money by making up a charity and holding a raffle to benefit it. After they've done the work and collected the money, Ricky and Fred find out, tell them they've committed fraud, and they're in deep trouble with the law. (I think the cops were there.). They are saved at the eleventh hour when a representative of the organization, which turns out to have existed after all, swoops in and takes the check.

Whatever you decide to do, have bread with the spaghetti. Good luck.
