Alpha Xi Delta is Banding Together for Autism.
Some of our group has purchased wristbands to pass out.
On World Autism Awareness Day, April 2, 2009, Alpha Xi Delta proudly announced its new philanthropy partnership with Autism Speaks.
With more than 150,000 members from coast to coast, Alpha Xi Delta was looking to support a cause that would have a personal connection to its members; support the sorority's mission and vision; and have support in place to assist its members across the United States. It found such a cause in Autism Speaks.
As of October 2011, the sorority has raised more than $600,000 nationally for autism research. In addition to the funds raised, Alpha Xi Delta Sisters have volunteered countless hours in support of Autism Speaks.
We are a group of Alpha Xi alumnae of all ages in the Chicago NW Suburbs. Our goals are to renew ties of sisterhood through social events, participate in philanthropic causes, support collegiate chapters...and more.
Autism Speaks
The Chicago NW Suburban Alumnae Association of Alpha Xi Delta is excited to bring Autism Speaks to the Chicago NW Suburban community. The worlds largest autism advocacy organization, Autism Speaks is dedicated to increasing awareness of autism spectrum disorders, to funding research into the causes, prevention and treatments for autism, and to advocating for the needs of individuals with autism and their families.
Our Sisters look forward to increasing autism awareness and working with Autism Speaks. With one in 110 children diagnosed with autism and no known cure, Alpha Xi Delta is committed to improving the lives of children and families affected by autism. We hope our fundraising and awareness efforts can help put one more piece of the autism puzzle in place.
