Make-A-Wish Foundation
The Make-A-Wish Foundation is Chi Omega Fraternity's National Philanthropy. Since the start of our alliance, Chi Omegas have made a difference in many children's lives through volunteering time, talents, and dollars. The Make-A-Wish Foundation has honored Chi Omega for the incredible volunteer efforts of our members.
Our chapter's dedication to supporting the Make A Wish Foundation paid off last February when we were able to grant a wish for Jason Bray, a teenager who has muscular dystrophy. Zeta Kappa surprised Jason at a UNCG basketball game with tickets to Las Vegas to meet his favorite Nascar driver, Jimmie Johnson. Our chapter's annual Kick for a Wish kickball tournament, Charity Denim designer jeans fundraiser, and Family Day silent auction raised $6,200 to grant Jason's wish. Thank you to everyone who contributed to our fundraisers and helped to make this possible! Our chapter is already on its way towards granting our next wish!

Zeta Kappa also supports the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. Each year during Breast Cancer Awareness Week, we co-sponsor a Breast Cancer Awareness Speaker with Student Health Services. We also distribute pamphlets and brochures to raise awareness on campus about the disease. Our chapter also participates and volunteers at the Susan G. Komen Women's Only 5K Walk and Run.
Other philanthropies that Zeta Kappa has supported include Hospice and Palliative Care Center of Greensboro, Relay for Life, Greensboro Humane Society, and Greensboro Department of Parks and Recreation. In addition to our own events, our chapter also participates in philanthropic events sponsored by other Greek organizations.
