Honor Domestic Violence Awareness Month in Oct. with a Shower!

A great Chi Connections/philanthropy idea from Delta Chi chapter (William Woods): throw a "Wish Shower" during meeting to benefit your local DV shelter. Each Chi Connections group is responsible for an area - invitations, decorating, clean-up, food, games, collection boxes on campus, etc. The Chi Connections Chair gets a wish list from your local shelter. The list is posted around campus with collection boxes - a great way to PACE. Invite other fraternities and sororities to the shower and to give something off the "wish registry". The faculty advisor, Greek advisor, and other administrators were also invited. You can even make up educational and fun DV awareness "shower games" to play at meeting. Fun meeting, great philanthropy, wonderful campus awareness of domestic violence, AND amazing PACEing!
