All proceeds will go toward games and coloring
books for the kids in Mott Children’s Hospital.
Members of AZD will be spending time with the Children and
utilize these resources for the Children.
Alpha Xi Delta's interest in children and their special needs led
us to adopt Choose Children, a initiative that emphasizes voluntary service in
all areas of child well-being. Choose Children isn't an organization - it's an
idea.
Unlike many other Greek organizations, Alpha Xi Delta is not
exclusively linked with one philanthropic organization. Alpha Xi Delta gives
members the flexibility to look in their communities and decide how they can
best benefit children. For some chapters it's sponsoring a football tournament
to raise money for a local organization; for others it's spending time tutoring
children at an after-school program. Some chapters choose to work with children
at a battered women's shelter, while others entertain patients in the pediatric
wing of a hospital. No matter what activity a chapter, association or individual
chooses, the impact that Alpha Xi Deltas have on children in their communities
is unmatched. And the impact children have on Alpha Xi Deltas everywhere is
immense!
Our Promise to Children
In 1998 Alpha Xi Delta joined in supporting the goal of America's
Promise - The Alliance for Youth (www.americaspromise.org) by promising to give
more than 75,000 hours and $250,000 yearly in contributions and donated goods to
children. Alpha Xi Delta chapters, associations and individual members have met
or exceeded our promise every year.
