Sisterhood

Our Beta Epsilon chapter of Alpha Phi exceeds in the promotion of sisterhood and watchcare. From the day new members receive their bids to the final day of graduation as a senior, we base a major part of the college experience as an Alpha Phi on the enjoyment of being sisters and the basic fact that we have become friends for a lifetime. We strive so that all members of our chapter feel comfortable and are always looking out for one another. We do this by making sure all girls are continually reminded of Alpha Phi's standards and values and provide lots of opportunities for fun activities.

For the many fun parts of Alpha Phi, we have a very involved sisterhood chair that plans at least one event per a month. This ranges from anything like renting out a movie theatre to watch Valentines Day in February or going on a brisk hike to the beautiful 7 Fall's waterfall in April to even laser tagging during March for St. Patrick's Day. All of these are just a few of the ideas in the last year but all in all, us Alpha Phi's love being with one another. Like the saying goes, "we work hard but play hard".

Service

Arizona Alpha Phi takes a lot of pride in the community service us ladies participate in. Each semester each Alpha Phi member completes 8 hours. Some examples of the community service Alpha Phi participates in are: Chapel Haven, Casa de Los Niños, CATwalk, and Susan G Komen Race for the Cure. There are many more community service opportunities the ladies of Alpha Phi participate in depending on their own preference. Chapel Haven and Casa de Los Niños are great opportunities for the ladies of Alpha Phi to interact with students and children who are in need of our help.

CATwalk and the Susan G Komen Race for the Cure are a great opportunity for those who want to participate in the walk or volunteer to help during the walk. All three of these events are open to the Tucson community to help raise awareness. Alpha Phi's passion for donating time to complete community service is incredible, many members go above and beyond by completing extra hours. Arizona Alpha Phi loves to give in such a rewarding way and to show the community of Tucson that Alpha Phi is involved.
