Philanthropy

Since 1979, Alpha Delta Pi has been committed to serving Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC). Alpha Delta Pi has contributed over $4.5 million to this worthwhile organization. RMHC supports Ronald McDonald Houses in local communities and funds grants to other nonprofit organizations whose programs focus on children in need.

Today, more than 300 Ronald McDonald Houses in 52 countries help keep families with seriously ill or injured children together when they need it most by offering them a comfortable, temporary residence in proximity to a medical facility. In addition to donating money to this incredible organization, collegiate chapters and alumnae associations spend their time and energy volunteering at local Ronald McDonald Houses.

Eta Beta Chapter of Alpha Delta Pi has been busy this past year!

We have held numerous philanthropy events. The first was Pizza Pies with ADPi in April. We sold $5 tickets to students, professors, and members of the community to come to our event, where they could design their own personal pizza that we then cooked for them. All the funds raised, more than $1,200, went to Ronald McDonald House.

Another event was Belle of the Ball, where we collected prom and homecoming dresses and donated them to girls in the area at no cost who could not typically afford such a financial expense.
