National Philanthropy Initiative

As of September 2, 2023, Alpha Pi Sigma Sorority, Incorporated has implemented a Rotating National Philanthropy program.

Each year, we highlight and support the Philanthropy efforts of one of our Chapters, which are making significant impacts in their communities. This approach allows us to address diverse needs and amplify our impact where it matters most.

 

We align our National Philanthropy with the Chapter hosting our Convention each year. This decision underscores our commitment to understanding and supporting the unique needs and aspirations of the communities we serve.

 

These changes reflect our unwavering dedication to corporate social responsibility and our desire to build stronger connections with the communities we are privileged to be a part of.

Why We Are Doing This

The rotating philanthropy initiative is a strategic approach to ensure that each chapter has the chance to lead and highlight their community impact.

 

This method not only showcases the work of our chapters but also strengthens connections between members, alumni, and the communities we serve. By rotating the annual philanthropy focus, we leverage the strengths of each chapter, creating a dynamic and evolving approach to service.

 

This initiative underscores our commitment to leadership development and community service, demonstrating the power of collective action and the importance of supporting each other to uplift and empower the Latine community.

Local Philanthropy

Each chapter is dedicated to fostering awareness and contributing to causes that resonate within both their university and local community, with a particular emphasis on empowering women, promoting education, and uplifting the Latinx community. Through a myriad of initiatives, including hosting events, volunteering, and collaborating with other organizations, chapters endeavor to raise awareness and effect positive change in these vital areas.

RISE Reno Initiative for Shelter and Equity

Founding Story
The Reno Initiative for Shelter & Equality (RISE) was founded in January 2012 when a group of friends began preparing home-cooked meals for their community. What started as a small kitchen project quickly grew into a formal organization within six months. RISE is now dedicated to addressing local needs and inspiring community-driven projects, embodying a spirit of service and commitment to positive change.

Chapter Contributions to RISE totaled $2,893, with the National Board matching a portion of these donations and including 300 sandwiches donated to Crossroads Women’s Shelter. In total, Alpha Pi Sigma contributed $6,000.
