Philanthropy

Kindly Hearts Initiative

The Kindly Hearts Initiative serves as the umbrella to our philanthropic focus on supporting children and teens experiencing foster care or homelessness. 

Alpha Xi Delta chapters and alumnae associations have the opportunity to support key impact organizations making a national or regional difference under the umbrella of our focus as well as the option to collaborate with local impact organizations that support children and teens experiencing foster care or homelessness.

 

Who Does the Kindly Hearts Initiative Support?

National Key Impact Organizations: FosterClub and StandUp for Kids
Key impact organizations making a national or regional difference under the umbrella of our focus benefit from the fundraising efforts of our National Impact Campaign, Letters of Love. 

Local Impact Organizations
Chapters and alumnae associations collaborate with local impact organizations that support children and teens experiencing foster care or homelessness.

 

How Does the Kindly Hearts Initiative Work?

National Impact Campaign: Letters of Love
Alpha Xi Delta members participate in Letters of Love, a national letter-writing campaign that benefits key impact organizations making a national difference in supporting children and teens experiencing foster care or homelessness. Chapters, alumnae associations and individual members fundraise for both key impact organizations, FosterClub or StandUp for Kids. Through the Letters of Love campaign, Alpha Xi Delta Sisters share their personal stories of why they choose to support the Kindly Hearts Initiative.

The AmaXIng Challenge is Alpha Xi Delta’s signature fundraising event benefitting The Kindly Hearts Initiative. Each chapter hosts an annual AmaXIng Challenge fundraising event.

Localized Service
