Philanthropy

Official Philanthropy - The Alpha Kappa Foundation

Alpha Epsilon Phi cares deeply about giving back to our community. We are proud to support our national philanthropies, Sharsheret and the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation, through charity fundraising events throughout the year.

EGPAF

The Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation was adopted as one of AEPhi’s national philanthropies in 2000. The Foundation (www.pedaids.org) was founded in 1988 by AEΦ alumna. The Foundation had one critical mission: to bring hope to children with AIDS. With little research being focused on the issue of pediatric AIDS, the three foudnign women sought to bring awareness and a possible cure to the innocent children around the world affected by HIV/AIDS.

Our chapter raises money for EGPAF in our Blades Against AIDS event, which is held in the Fall semester.

Sharsheret

Sharsheret (www.sharsheret.org) is a national not-for-profit organization dedicated to addressing the unique challenges faced by young Jewish women living with breast cancer. Members of Alpha Epsilon Phi have supported Sharsheret's mission to support young Jewish women facing breast cancer by spreading the word, fundraising, creating teams for local walks, runs, and marathons for breast cancer, hosting local Sharsheret events and organizing health fairs.
