The project that I'm going to advocate for this year is suppling the local Samaritin Center with all of the health kits that it will need for a whole year. They only cost about $4 at a dollar store to make (you know toothbrushes, Washcloths, soap, combs, shampoo ect. anything that you would need if you were displaced from your home for a while), and if one chapter could do that, then it would make a huge difference in this community.

What a great idea! Making the kits together could be fun as well.

One of the things that I like to encourage my chapter and those around us to do is commit to one big project a year rather than 50 small things for two reasons, 1) It adds to the image of the orgainization and chapter, and 2) it keeps you focused for the year.

As Greeks, those letters we wear give us a huge advantage when it comes to fundraising and service. Rather than spreading it so thinly to the point where no one notices we should make big impacts in a few areas.
