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 Efforts
The Theta Rho Chapter is proud to support the Kindly Hearts Initiative through our two annual philanthropy events:
NBAXID: A basketball-inspired event held each fall in collaboration with the men’s basketball team.
Lip Sync: A high-energy competition hosted in the spring, bringing together the campus and community for a great cause.
These events, combined with Letters of Love and service opportunities, allow our chapter to positively impact both the local Oceanside community and the broader mission of Alpha Xi Delta.
Our Chapter's Impact
The Theta Rho Chapter of Alpha Xi Delta is proud to bring The Kindly Hearts Initiative to California State University, San Marcos. This initiative supports children experiencing foster care or homelessness. Locally, our chapter partners with StandUp for Kids in Oceanside, an organization dedicated to ending youth homelessness.
We support this mission through our fundraising events and AmaXing Challenges, which bring the campus and community together to make a positive impact.
This past fall, we hosted NBAXID, a basketball-inspired event in collaboration with the men’s basketball team. The event combined fun, teamwork, and philanthropy, raising over $4,000 for StandUp for Kids and surpassing our goal.
This spring, we’re excited to host our annual Lip Sync, another AmaXing Challenge that will unite the community through creativity and friendly competition, all while supporting our philanthropy.
In addition to these events, the Theta Rho Chapter participates in various service initiatives. Our sisters dedicate over 100 hours of community service each semester, demonstrating our commitment to giving back and making a difference.
Love,
Philanthropy Vice President, Alyssa Bell
