Alpha Xi Delta’s Philanthropic Focus

The Kindly Hearts Initiative

The Kindly Hearts Initiative serves as the umbrella to our national philanthropic focus of supporting children and teens experiencing foster care or homelessness. Alpha Xi Deltas across the country support two Key Impact Organizations, FosterClub and StandUp for Kids, making a national and regional difference under the umbrella of our focus.

Letters of Love

All Alpha Xi Delta chapters and alumnae associations participate in Letters of Love, Alpha Xi Delta’s national letter writing fundraising campaign. Held annually during the month of November this campaign benefits Alpha Xi Delta’s two Key Impact Organizations, StandUp for Kids and FosterClub.

Our Chapter's Impact:

Alpha Xi Delta nationally supports the Kindly Hearts Initiative, focusing on foster care and children experiencing homelessness. Over 400,000 children are currently placed in foster care in the U.S. and every year an estimated 4.2 million youth experience homelessness.

The Delta Mu Chapter is proud and fortunate to be serving our local community, providing for youth experiencing foster care and homelessness in the Hampton Roads area. We host campus wide philanthropy events to raise funds and awareness! Each year we participate in the National Impact Campaign, Letters of Love. November is National Homeless Youth Awareness Month and May is National Foster Care Month. 

Additional Philanthropic Events

Additional events we coordinate throughout the semester may involve group and individual service project opportunities, donation drives, profit share nights at local restaurants, food fundraising events and more! Follow us on social media to see event announcements and information.
