ABOUT OUR PHILANTHROPY

Arthritis

Alpha Omicron Pi’s international philanthropy is arthritis, and our philanthropy partner is the Arthritis Foundation. Since 1967, members and chapters have raised millions of dollars to fund research, provide resources, and support those affected by arthritis, a disease that disproportionately impacts women and also affects children.

AOII’s philanthropy dollars support several impactful Arthritis Foundation initiatives, including the Juvenile Arthritis Power Pack program, Juvenile Arthritis Camps, the Juvenile Arthritis Family Summit, and the 24/7 Helpline. Our Canadian sisters proudly support The Arthritis Society of Canada, furthering our shared mission to fight arthritis and improve lives.

OUR Local Efforts

We’re proud to continue Alpha Omicron Pi’s legacy of service at Chi Psi by supporting causes that make a meaningful impact both locally and nationally. In addition to our national philanthropy, we proudly support The Andrew McDonough B+ Foundation, an organization dedicated to providing financial assistance and emotional support to families of children battling cancer. Through fundraising and service efforts, our chapter is honored to contribute to their mission of spreading hope and positivity to those facing pediatric cancer.
