I found this article that listed NPC sororities based on alumni presence, social media, and money donated through their foundation annually. Thought it was great to highlight what our chapters do on a national level so I listed the ones we have at MSU!

I think the most important thing about this article is money donated, not that alumni interaction isn't important but money donated directly to philanthropy is such a huge thing!

Great info. But for most sororities "Foundation" money is not for philanthropic efforts ... it is used to promote and grow the sorority.

Also some groups are required to pay Foundation dues throughout there life as an alum ... DG is one of those hence their large Foundation fund. Not knocking them but it does skew the money amounts.

is higher because Service for Sight is funded from the Foundation. Other sororities sponsor outside philanthropies (like DDD goes to St. Jude and Chi O to Make A Wish). DG supports an internal Service for Sight, so it's 1 # not 2 separate #s. Either way, a lot of great sororities funding a lot of great philanthropies!

that the money donated means more than the number of Twitter followers. On behalf of Pi Phi, their Foundation helps support the Settlement School in Gatlinburg and Pi Beta Phi Elementary, as well as the Housing Corporation and the overall Fraternity as a whole.
