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.

It all began on April 5, 1895, at the University of Arkansas when four young women, with the help of a local dentist, established the secrets and symbolism that today bind over 260,000 women. This small band of women founded Chi Omega after realizing a need for an organization that would foster both friendship and respect for the potential and inherent value of women. Over the years, Chi Omega has provided its members with unique opportunities in leadership, scholarship, and lifelong friendship - striving to provide each Sister with a commitment to personal integrity, excellence in academic and intellectual pursuits, intergenerational participation, community service, leadership opportunities and social enrichment.

Career and Personal Development prepares us for life’s work and makes us marketable regardless of the path we choose.  Sisters serve as mentors and coaches along the way.  Chi Omega promotes personal growth and teaches us to work earnestly at whatever we choose to do.

Chi Omega is FUN! Every year, over 5,000 young women across America join the largest women’s fraternity in the world for sisterhood and lifelong friendships.

Sincere Learning and Creditable Scholarship means that we care about our intellectual development.  We embrace the spirit and excitement of learning throughout our lives and encourage others to better themselves.

Community Service means that we want to make a difference on our campuses and in our communities.  We know that giving back to others unselfishly makes the world a better place and makes us better people.   Serving and giving helps to connect us.
The Women of Tau Alpha participate in a variety of community service projects. Below are just a few of our activities:

• Annual Pancake Breakfast benefiting our national philanthropy "Make-A-Wish"
• Amesville & Chauncy Carnivals
• My Sisters Place
• Collecting school supplies for Chauncy Elementary
  

Chi Omega’s symbols are a visual representation of our purposes and ideals.

The Chi Omega Symphony has reflected the purposes of Chi Omega members since its composition in 1904 by Ethel Switzer Howard on the eve of her initiation into the Xi Chapter of Chi Omega at Northwestern University.

Consistent with the 6 purposes of Chi Omega, the Tau Alpha Chapter has been dedicated to giving back to our local Athens community through various service events. In addition to encouragin strong academic ethic, Tau Alpha has succeeded in becomeing 1st in grades (Fall 2008) among the sororities of Ohio University. The Tau Alpha Chapter was founded in 1895 and is among the largest Greek organizations on Ohio University's campus.
