| "Another
APhiO Service" |
|
|
Kappa Chapter has been serving Carnegie Mellon and
the surrounding community continuously since 1929. Our
chapter determines its own service program and each
member is encouraged to offer ideas for projects, and
help make them happen.
Here's a complete list
of our service projects and a link to the Carnegie Mellon Service Calendar.
Our service program is divided into four fields of
service, and we try to perform projects in each of the
four fields each semester.
|
| Service
to the Carnegie Mellon campus |
|
|
Many of our projects are directed towards campus and
are performed on a semesterly or yearly basis. Such
projects include a Campus Service Calendar, the C-Book
(Campus directory), and Football Concessions.
We also try to help other campus organizations with
their charity or service projects throughout the year.
|
| Service
to Youth and the Community |
|
|
Alpha Phi Omega prides itself in its contribution of
service to the community. The majority of Kappa's community
service projects consist of helping local organizations
that need the extra hand. The projects can be anything
from fundraisers to walk-a-thons to cooking meals for
the homeless.
Kappa also has a strong scouting program where we help
local boy scouts and girl scouts through various projects.
These include Merit Badge University
for the boy scouts and Journey
for the girl scouts where we teach between
200 - 300 scouts their required badges. We also help
with other smaller events such as Pinewood Derby, camporees,
etc. We are hoping to further expand our involvement
with scouts through our Venturing Crew.
|
| Service
to the Nation |
|
| While there aren't many specific projects that we perform
in this area, we do try to help with National organizations
on a local basis, such as March of Dimes and Habitat for
Humanity. |
| Service
to our Fraternity |
|
| We provide service to our fraternity through leadership
development (both structured and learned), academic support,
fraternal support, and alumni relations. This is extended
to the national level when we help plan or participate
in sectional, regional or national conventions or workshops.
