Sisterhood Retreat: Oprah Style: You get a ticket, and you get a ticket, and you get a ticket …

What are we thankful for this week? Thinking of others and providing assistance and benefit! #AXOThankful
Remember that time we had our Sisterhood Retreat at Disney’s Animal Kingdom and we shared #HeraDay with other park visitors by giving away some day passes? It was Magical.

Thanks Katie Jo, Carrie and Kellie
and as a special treat, we ran in to an alumna from OUR CHAPTER! (Michelle G, Kellie G and #axoyoungalum Kari)

DVA Week!

Domestic Violence Awareness week is here!
Starting today, the Beta Eta Chapter of Alpha Chi Omega will be holding events throughout campus to spread awareness for the DVA cause and domestic violence prevention.
  • Today FSUPD will be stoping by “The 518” to provide sisters with a self defense class. This lesson in how to effectively fight off an attacker will be free for sisters. THANK YOU FSU Police Department!
  • The chapter will be holding the fundraising dessert event to benefit Refuge House at the Alpha Chi house tomorrow, October 27, called “Donuts for DVA.” There will be donuts, cupcakes, cookies and other yummy treats for sisters and guests. The event starts at 7 p.m and tickets are $5.
  • On Wednesday sisters will be setting up a table at FSU’s Market Wednesday in Oglesby Union. Similar to last year’s DVA week, there will be a photo booth open to FSU students along with DVA stickers.
  • The week will end with our much-anticipated DVA Gala! The gala coincides with parents weekend, so many of our sisters will be bringing mom and dad along for the event. The gala consists of dinner and a silent auction with all proceeds going toward DVA.

Our donations to Refuge House #AXODVA #AltruisticAXO #VioletAgainstViolence

We appreciate the relationship we have with Refuge House. We help them monetarily through fundraising events like #PizzaPiewithAlphaChi and #DonutsforDVA. Sisters lend helping hands physically as well, by volunteering when needs arise such as painting or helping with Halloween carnivals. Refuge House holds trainings for our sisters, allowing AXOs to understand more about domestic violence awareness, and how we can help and advocate for the cause.

Love & Loyalty Scholarship Fund benefiting Sisters

Beta Eta chapter is so fortunate to have endowed our own scholarship with Alpha Chi Omega Foundation.

Many alumnae and collegians donated treasures, time and talent to create the Beta Eta Love & Loyalty fund! We are pleased to read the thank you notes from the many recipients of the fund. Some sisters are finishing their undergraduates studies; one is a PhD student and a #4lifenot4years alumna who also serves as a chapter advisor to Zeta Psi in NOLA; and one collegian participated in National Panhellenic’s philanthropy Circle of Sisterhood trip to Nicaragua to help remove education barriers for girls.

This weeks senior spotlight is on Heidi Thomas! Heidi has worked so hard these past few months pairing new members with older sisters as mystagogues. All of her hard work paid off last Sunday during the big/little reveal. 
This spring, Heidi will be graduating with a degrees in Retail Merchandising and Product Development. Heidi worked for SPANX in Atlanta over the summer; she meet two other #AXO interns there! After graduation she will be applying for a flight attendant position, but Heidi’s long-term career goals include becoming a buyer or visual merchandise coordinator for a large fashion company.
