Dear Sisters, The natural disasters of 2005 brought people together and served as reminders that tragedy is felt, people are affected, around the world.
MAKING A DIFFERENCE
The earthquake in Indonesia, mudslides in countries throughout South America and Hurricane Katrina in the U.S. left devastating effects. We see the pictures on television and in newspapers, but

those pictures do not even begin to show the total destruction and Crista Vasina
the human suffering. Times of great sorrow are also times of great pride as we rally to support national and global efforts.
This issue of the Quarterly salutes those who make the world around them a better place through their philanthropic efforts and community service.

Read about the successes and efforts of our own philanthropy, the Alpha Phi Foundation.
Several days after Katrina hit, there was a knock on my front door. When I opened the door, there stood two girls not more than 7 years old. They were holding rakes and buckets and explained that they were raking leaves in order to raise funds for the hurricane relief efforts. As I watched these young ladies work I felt a sense of pride in our community. Their commitment and desire to help once again proved to me what a great nation we have. As Alpha Phis we believe in living philanthropic lives. We value service and encourage each other to offer a helping hand. As collegians we provide service within our communities and participate in efforts to raise funds. As alumnae we continue those efforts, and we bring those values into our families’ lives. Our significant others and our children watch and learn. Some of my most meaningful memories involve times when my family has been involved in a philanthropic or community service effort. In this issue you will read about how our sisters are actively involved in philanthropic causes, including Hurricane Katrina relief efforts. You will see that no matter where you live you can make a difference in others’ lives. I encourage each of you to take a moment and ask yourself, how can I help? Not only

Heart to Heart: Community Service and Philanthropy Alpha Phis are sisters for life. We support one another and help each other in times of need. We also expand that support outside of Alpha Phi by donating our time, talents and money to those in need. Both community service and philanthropy play an important role in Alpha Phi membership.
DEFINITION: Philanthropy is the voluntary promotion of human welfare by making a monetary donation to an organization.
DEFINITION: Community service is a donation of time volunteered by individuals or an organization to benefit a community or its institutions.
Philanthropy As new members, we learn that Alpha Phi’s philanthropy is the Alpha Phi Foundation. Our collegiate and alumnae chapters host philanthropy events that benefit the Foundation, and individuals donate their own money to support the Foundation’s work. Thanks to our members, the Foundation is an important funding source of education in women’s cardiac health, leadership development and philanthropy. The Foundation has supported cardiac care in some form for more than 50 years. Today, its focus has shifted to support women’s cardiac health. It also funds programs that provide leadership and educational opportunities, encourage and recognize superior scholarship, educate women about the value of philanthropy and assist members in need. “Whether a collegian attends a leadership conference funded by the Foundation, a graduate or undergraduate student receives a Foundation scholarship, or an alumna or collegian benefits from one of the Foundation’s crisis programs, the overarching goal of the Foundation is to create more opportunities for women – to create the leaders of tomorrow,” says former Foundation Executive Director Rebecca Andrew Zanatta (Beta Rho deuteron-Washington State). “Great women leaders are also great philanthropists,” she adds. “We hope the Alpha Phi Foundation is one of our members’ top three philanthropic priorities. Donating to the Alpha Phi Foundation is the perfect opportunity to make a difference.” Community Service During college, our members are encouraged to reach out to those in need of assistance and to contribute to other philanthropic causes. Being active in one’s community and seeking out projects that give back to one’s community, says Rebecca, ties into the Foundation’s mission of educating women about the value of philanthropy. “It is important to talk about being a sorority woman when volunteering,” adds Rebecca. “Wear Alpha Phi shirts, pins or lavalieres. It’s a great way to market Alpha Phi and a better way to show the community that Alpha Phis care.” Editor’s Note: Donations to the Alpha Phi Foundation are tax deductible.

Sisters in Service Careers Whether they were exposed to and became involved in helping others through the Alpha Phi collegiate experience or because a cause is near to their hearts, Alpha Phis have chosen careers in service organizations – and some have even established the organizations! Meet some of these sisters. Alumna Is Activist for Autism Former attorney Jillian Zacks Duhl (Zeta UpsilonWashington University) left a high-paying power position to become a volunteer and community activist for a cause that is close to her heart. Jill is director of Jillian Duhl is pictured with her development for twins, Max and Paige. AutismLink, Inc., a non-profit organization that help parents and family members of individuals with autism spectrum disorders and autistic individuals by providing opportunities for support, inclusion and information, free of charge. She also volunteers as a board member of the Pennsylvania Action Coalition for Autism Services, keeping an eye on legislation as it affects individuals with autism. As a parent of twins diagnosed in the autistic spectrum, it is Jill’s goal to help other parents become educated about autism. There is no known cause or cure for the disorder. “It can be one of the most difficult things to hear when your child is first diagnosed, and now more than one in every 166 parents will hear those very words,” Jill says. Jill says she hopes her experiences will get more women to volunteer for causes dear to their hearts. She adds, “I also hope if there is another mom going through a similar experience with a child diagnosed in the autistic spectrum that I could offer understanding and guidance.” Contact Jill at 724.816.9196 or jzduhl@yahoo.com. Sister Works to Save Babies In 2001, Tracy Heming-Littwin (Epsilon DeltaNorthern Illinois) and some friends began the Save Abandoned Babies Foundation, a not-for-profit volunteer group dedicated to saving babies from being abandoned in dumpsters and other unsafe places in Illinois. Grassroots efforts began in March 2000 when a co-founder read a newspaper article about a baby found in a Chicago dumpster. After learning that WINTER 2006
other states were addressing this horrible and growing problem with “safe haven laws,” volunteers drafted a law and lobbied for its passage. The foundation was instrumental in the passing of the Abandoned Newborn Infant Protection Act that was signed into Illinois law in August 2001. The law allows a newborn 72 hours old or less to be relinquished at a manned fire station, police station or hospital with no questions asked and without fear of prosecution. “We continue to do everything we can so these newborns are given a full chance at life,” says Tracy. “Since the law was passed, 18 newborns have been saved.” Working to improve the lives of others has come naturally to Tracy for several years. She has volunteered for the Make-A-Wish® Foundation of Illinois for more than 16 years as a wish granter, public speaker, chairman of golf outings, junior board member and a wish manager. She also owns and works with a dog trained for pet assisted therapy; they work with patients on both physical and emotional therapy at Marianjoy Rehabilitation Hospital in Wheaton, Ill. Contact Tracy at 630.476.0335 or theminglittwin@hotmail.com. For more information about the Save Abandoned Babies Foundation, visit www.saveabandonedbabies.org. For information on the Make-A-Wish® Foundation, visit www.wish.org. Moms Supporting Moms Stephanie McConnell Hughes (Delta GammaNorthern Colorado) is co-founder of the Greeley Mothers’ Center, a service organization that supports mothers in Greeley, Colo. When she, her husband and their then 5-monthold daughter Tristan moved to Greeley in 2001, Stephanie was a new mom and out of the work force for the first time. The center was born thanks to Stephanie’s search for friendships for herself and her daughter, support as a new parent and a way to put her marketing skills to use. “Many new moms feel isolated and out of touch with their friends who might be at different stages of life. By attending the Mothers’ Center’s play groups, discussion groups and social activities, I connected with other women and made friends quickly and easily. My daughter became friends with the children she met at play groups,” says Stephanie.

“I cannot think of a time since I graduated that I have not been involved in volunteer work. I guess it was the great philanthropic experiences in college as an Alpha Phi and Panhellenic president that started me on this path.” - Jillian Duhl

“I haven’t actually traveled like Amanda has, but it is her inspiration and her stories of how we can and are changing lives through the work we do, not only locally but globally, that keep me going.” -Jennifer Klenske, volunteer coordinator for the One Campaign, Orange County, Calif., about her friend, Amanda Zidek-Vanega
Stephanie Hughes is pictured with her daughter, Tristan, and son, Jack.
“When I was going through recruitment one of the main reasons I chose the Zeta Beta chapter was based on its incredible philanthropy and service. Zeta Beta not only donates the most volunteer hours of any Greek organization on campus; the chapter raises more money for the Alpha Phi Foundation than all of the Greek organization philanthropies combined.” -Erin Pattison (Zeta Beta-Loyola Marymount), collegian

The volunteer-run center depends on contributions of its members – a diverse demographic of women who follow different parenting styles and range from stay-at-home moms to those who work outside the home full-time. The one thing everyone at the center has in common is motherhood. Some take meals to those with new babies. Some organize play groups or fundraisers. Some participate in the decision-making body, the leadership committee. “It is a place where mothers share experiences in a nonjudgmental atmosphere and work together to raise the status of women as mothers,” says Stephanie. “I am really committed to establishing Mothers’ Centers in every community.” Today Stephanie serves on the board of trustees for the National Association of Mothers’ Centers. Those interested in learning more about Mothers’ Centers or beginning one in your community should contact the National Association of Mothers’ Centers at 1.800.645.3828 or www.motherscenter.org. Contact Stephanie at 970.330.3338 or skmcconn@hotmail.com. Alumna Leads Virtual March Lindsay Guetschow (Epsilon Rho-UC/Davis) is director of outreach for the Stop Global Warming Virtual March on Washington, a yearlong virtual march that winds across the U.S. via the Internet. The march, founded by Laurie David (wife of Larry David of “Curb Your Enthusiasm”), includes a list of Lindsay Guetschow more than 165,000 concerned people, including prominent virtual marchers such as former Vice President Al Gore, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, Robert Kennedy, Jr. and Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger. The goal of the march is to culminate in Washington, D.C., on Earth Day (April 22, 2006) millions strong and impossible to ignore. “I am ecstatic to be at the forefront of the civil rights issue of our generation: global warming,” says Lindsay. “It affects us all, and it is our moral duty to protect our planet for future generations.” Contact Lindsay at Lindsay@lauriedavid.com or 310.454.2561. For more information and to become a virtual marcher, visit www.StopGlobalWarming.org.
Sister Devotes Career to Global Service Amanda Zidek-Vanega (Beta Tau-Indiana) has dedicated her work to improving the environment and helping others to better their own lives since graduating. “It is not the money…,” she Amanda Zidek-Vanega jokes about why she has worked exclusively with not-for-profit organizations. “I have been drawn to this sector because it is mission-driven and helps people. I share similar convictions with others working in the sector. It never ceases to amaze me how many people are willing to help and support a cause!” Her career began with the Peace Corps, based in northwestern Nicaragua teaching and training teachers in environmental education. “My experience in Nicaragua solidified my interest in wanting to help people live better,” Amanda says. While in Nicaragua Amanda met and married her husband. They moved to the U.S., where she worked for the Center for Cultural Interchange (CCI), which promotes international understanding and a better world through cultural exchange, and the Youth Leadership Academy, a program that helps students strengthen their leadership abilities. She received a master’s degree in environmental management at Duke University and has taken this knowledge back to Nicaragua where she is helping to improve communities in poverty-stricken areas. She has done contract work with St. Louis Zoo’s Bosawas Biodiversity Project. Located in Central Nicaragua, the project involves conducting research toward an ultimate goal of sustainable fauna management and conservation. Amanda supports conservation education and communication efforts. She is also working with two other women – one is Alpha Phi alumna Jennifer Hillquist Klenske (Epsilon Theta-Northern Iowa) – to begin a microcredit project in the rural communities of northwestern Nicaragua. Microcredit provides loans too small for traditional banks – between $50 and $200 – to people who have identified an economic opportunity but do not have the money to capitalize on it. Currently in the diagnostic stage, Amanda says, “Our program will provide loans, but we also intend to train clients on managing money, budgeting and planning for the future. Environmental sustainability will also come into play.” Contact Amanda at avanega@mac.com. For more information on the Biodiversity Project, visit www.stlzoo.org. ALPHA PHI

Hurricane Katrina: Alpha Phis Help Those Affected Hurricane Katrina has been called the largest natural disaster in modern American history. Alpha Phi sisters were among those affected by the devastation, and sisters have given their time, talent and money to help victims. Foundation Fund Benefits Sister In her second year of medical school at Tulane University, New Orleans resident Anjali Malik (Zeta Omicron deuteron-Johns Hopkins) was a victim of Hurricane Katrina. Her life and her studies were unexpectedly disrupted and possessions lost. When Tulane decided to move its medical school to Houston, she was forced to move to a strange city. Thanks to the Alpha Phi Foundation’s ForgetMe-Not Fund, Anjali has received some help putting her life back together in a new city. “Like so many people, we are all just starting over again,” she says. As a young alumna, Anjali is grateful for assistance from Alpha Phi sisters. “The Forget-Me-Not Fund is a great opportunity for alumnae in need. I never anticipated I would use it, especially so soon after college,” Anjali says. “Fortunately for me, I was aware of the fund. I hope no one else ever needs it, but in the event that they do, I wish more people knew about it.” (See sidebar for more information.)
Katrina victims. Almost $5,000 was raised for the American Red Cross.® DePauw (Gamma) collegians Sabrina Henry, Bailey Dively, Kara Kreikemeier and Megan Walton traveled with other students to Mississippi during the university’s fall break. They provided food and service to nearly 1,000 people. Several Texas Tech (Gamma Iota) women volunteered at evacuation sites in Lubbock, Texas.
Sisters Donate Time and Talents Our alumnae and collegiate chapter members collected money, clothing, school supplies, hygiene products and other relief supplies that were donated both to New Orleans and local shelters housing displaced evacuees. Efforts ranged from organizing drives and hosting benefits to boxing supplies and loading trucks. Arizona State (Gamma Pi) collegians and Phoenix, Ariz., alumnae made community service a team effort by hosting a donation drive among Greek groups and throughout the community. University of the Pacific conservatory of music student and Iota Gamma collegian Sabrina Sutherland took advantage of the school’s musical talents by co-organizing a benefit concert for Hurricane
Alumnae Provide Support After four years with the American Red Cross® Kathy Schimandle Wright (Lambda-UC/Berkeley) received her first disaster assignment. She worked with in-kind donations at the disaster headquarters in Baton Rouge, La. Kathy obtained and delivered everything from diapers to coloring books and baseball caps. “It was quite an experience, and the people of Baton Rouge have been most gracious,” Kathy says. Katie Adams Choe (Zeta Phi-MIT) was part of a team that helped re-settle Katrina evacuees at Otis Air Force Base on Cape Cod, Mass. The team met the evacuees as they exited the plane, ensured that their immediate needs were met, assisted with the registration process and housing assignments and ensured the transition into their new housing was smooth and that their personal needs were met with respect and dignity.

Sheltering Displaced Collegians Some of our collegiate chapters reached out to non-Alpha Phi students. Colorado (Beta Gamma deuteron) sisters showed their Panhellenic spirit by opening their doors to three Greek-affiliated women from Tulane University who were displaced by the hurricane. Members of Loyola Marymount (Zeta Beta) personally wrote and delivered letters to more than 150 displaced students to welcome them to campus and offer Alpha Phi as an organization to approach with questions and for support.
FOUNDATION EMERGENCY ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS The Alpha Phi Foundation offers two emergency assistance programs: the Forget-Me-Not Fund for alumnae and the Emergency Aid program for collegiate women. The Forget-Me-Not Fund provides assistance to alumnae who are facing serious health problems, natural disasters or other crises. The Emergency Aid program offers aid to any undergraduate member facing an interruption of her education due to an unforeseen financial crisis. Assistance may be provided either on an emergency basis when a single grant is given or on a continuing basis in the form of a small monthly stipend for 12 consecutive months. For more information about Alpha Phi Foundation emergency assistance programs, visit www.alphaphi.org/ foundation/MemberAssist Funds.html or call 847.316.8947.
Although publicity about Hurricane Katrina and its devastation are less prevalent now than immediately after the disaster, the need for assistance remains. The Alpha Phi Foundation continues to accept donations in support of Hurricane Katrina and other relief efforts. Or you can donate to one of several reputable charities providing assistance (see sidebar).

ALPHA PHI FRATERNITY 2005 ANNUAL REPORT
D
ear Sisters,
Alpha Phi International Fraternity is a membership organization dedicated to promoting sisterhood, cultivating leadership, encouraging intellectual curiosity and advocating service. Alpha Phi develops character for a lifetime. Alpha Phi International Fraternity Mission
In order to achieve our mission, the International Executive Board (IEB) and Executive Office (EO) staff developed a rolling five-year plan to allocate both human and financial resources. This plan addresses collegiate and alumnae membership, community engagement, operational effectiveness and growth. Our success is dependent on the prudent investment of resources and the support of all members of our organization. Through oversight, sound management and committed volunteers we have strengthened the Fraternity’s finances, membership and programming and are positioning the organization for growth. The IEB, together with the EO, is pleased to publish this report for fiscal year 2005 (FY05). The purpose of the Annual Report is to provide a concise annual record of achievements during the last year. If you have questions regarding the Annual Report, or if you would like to e-mail the IEB on any issue, please contact us at IEBQuestions@alphaphi.org. The IEB and I look forward to seeing as many of you as possible at Convention in June. Loyally, Crista Cate Vasina, International President

Finances FY05 was very positive from a financial standpoint. The Fraternity experienced an increase in net assets from operations and investments. Again this year the Fraternity received an unqualified audit report from our independent auditors. We were also able to grant loans to two house corporation boards for housing projects this year. Collegiate Membership Alpha Phi enjoyed continuing growth and improved strength in collegiate membership. The Fraternity is 143 chapters strong. For the 2004-05 school year, 78 percent of reporting chapters rushed in the top half of their campus, and we initiated nearly 4,000 collegiate women. Seven educational leadership consultants and eight volunteer regional teams supported our collegiate chapters. All of our chapters benefited from the support of advisory boards, while 70 percent reported having three or more advisers. We are pleased that a significant number of our chapters and members were recognized on their campuses for outstanding leadership, scholarship and service contributions. Marketing and Extension The Fraternity was invited to recolonize our 21st chapter at the University of Oklahoma in Norman, Okla. The chapter closed during the summer of 1998, and Alpha Phi is pleased to have been extended the honor of returning. Spring semester kicked off the early planning stages of this return and included a Panhellenic welcoming reception in honor of the IEB. A team has been established to support the colonization efforts, which included the planning of a summer reunion at the chapter house. Training and Development The Fraternity offered five specialized training sessions during the summer and fall. Alumnae Chapter College, Rush University Midwest, Rush University West, Regional Team Training (VIPhi) and Chapter Adviser Academy provided volun-
teers the opportunity to expand their Alpha Phi knowledge and skills and enjoy some affiliate time together too. As a result, our volunteers are better able to implement strategies to strengthen and improve our collegiate and alumnae chapters. Regional Conferences provided training to more than 1,000 collegians and volunteers. Nineteen audio conferences provided training to new chapter advisers, and 15 roundtable audio conferences provided opportunities for discussion and questions to chapter advisers and collegians. In keeping with the Fraternity’s mission of cultivating leadership, Alpha Phi is creating a Fraternity-wide Leadership Initiative based on our values. The Alpha Phi Foundation-funded project will provide a sense of accountability, responsibility and integrity in its participants and is meant to promote a feeling of loyalty and lifetime commitment to Alpha Phi. The Initiative consists of two concurrent programs facilitated by specially trained alumnae. To capture Alpha Phi’s rich history through the words of those who led the organization, the Fraternity, with a grant from the Alpha Phi Foundation, interviewed three of the Fraternity’s seven living past presidents as part of a heritage video project. The remaining four will be interviewed in the future. Communications The Alpha Phi Web site received a new look in August. In addition to being more interactive for users, redesign highlights include new sections for potential members and parents. Look for continued improvements in the future. The Alpha Phi Quarterly implemented a new subscription policy with its summer issue. In addition to benefiting crucial programs for alumnae and the Alpha Phi Foundation, the change will mean savings in years to come that will lead to noticeable improvements in the quality of the magazine – including a redesign. For ALPHA PHI
Quarterly
details about the policy, visit www.alphaphi.org/news/quarterly subscription.html. The Quarterly is an Award of Distinction winner in The Communicator Awards Print Media competition for the fourth year in a row. For a second year in a row, the Quarterly received an APEX (Awards for Publication Excellence) Award of Excellence. Both competitions recognize outstanding work in the communication field. An internship program was created to provide students with the opportunity to gain professional hands-on experience in the areas of magazine publication and public relations. Current Staffing Alpha Phi continues to benefit from a wellstaffed, high functioning EO comprised of a team of experts in all areas of fraternity life. Linda Schnetzer (Beta OmicronBowling Green State) returned from a year in China to resume her role leading the collegiate membership department. Karen Goff (Beta-Northwestern) left her role as program coordinator of consultants and recruitment to pursue graduate studies, and Rebecca “Rebbie” Howell (Gamma Nu-Miami University) took over Karen’s position. Lindsay Martin (Beta Psi-San Jose State) was promoted to manager of collegiate operations, and Laura Garraway Caulfield (Delta Epsilon-Iowa) assumed the new position of manager of collegiate development, which focuses on proactive measures to advance our chapter functions. Megan Bouché (Epsilon-Minnesota) moved to the new marketing and extension department as its associate director. Andrea Law (Iota Eta-DePaul) joined the communications, training and development department as the coordinator of education and leadership programs; this new position is funded by a Foundation grant. The EO staff bid farewell to Keri Miller (Delta Rho-Ball State); after six years on staff Keri has begun a new career with a destination management firm. WINTER 2006
Baylee Simon (Beta-Northwestern) was the first to take advantage of the communications internship during the 2005 winter and spring academic terms. Nora Gardner (Beta-Northwestern) was the summer intern, and Stephanie Nordstrom (Iota Alpha-Pepperdine) participated in late summer and early fall. The EO also introduced two parttime positions to support the office’s efforts. During the 2004-05 school year Gwendolyn Hill (Gamma Epsilon deuteron-Lake Forest) assisted the collegiate membership department, and Susan DuMont (Gamma Epsilon deuteron-Lake Forest) assumed the same role during the summer. Gemma Mangione (Beta-Northwestern) assists the communications, training and development and alumnae departments.
purchase: return address labels. The department created a new magazine for graduating seniors, Transitions. This 16-page magazine was sent to more than 3,500 new alumnae and included articles on savings and investing, managing credit cards and the importance of good credit, the mysteries of insurance, workplace etiquette, navigating office politics and how to stay connected to Alpha Phi after graduation. The alumnae department also updated membership data in the main database at the EO. With a goal of populating individual records with training and event attendance, Convention award winners and historical knowledge, the database is on its way to becoming the singular source for historical knowledge of Fraternity members.
Alumnae In FY05, 8,097 alumnae paid International alumnae dues. Monies received funded a variety of Fraternity support, including the colonization of nine new alumnae chapters. The alumnae department added a new product for
Closing As we embark upon another year, we will continue our ongoing communication and interaction with the sisterhood, remain a fiscally responsible organization and provide services that will meet the needs and enhance the experiences of our members.

Hearts of Gold Weekend A special group of Foundation donors enjoyed a weekend in their honor at the Executive Office (EO) in Evanston in September. Those donors who commit to giving $5,000 during the 2004-06 biennium are designated as members of Hearts of Gold, a new giving society created in honor of the Foundation’s 50th anniversary in 2006. Twelve of the 37 Hearts of Gold members attended the weekend festivities that included special updates on the state of the Fraternity and Foundation and activities in downtown Chicago. A Friday evening reception with Fraternity and Foundation staff kicked off the weekend. International Executive Board President Crista Cate Vasina (Delta Gamma-Northern Colorado) and Fraternity Executive Director Susan Zabriskie (Theta-Michigan) presented updates on such topics as recruitment, leadership, programming and finances. On Saturday morning participants heard from Foundation Chairman Susan Weiskittle Barrick (Beta Omicron-Bowling Green State) and Executive Director Rebecca Andrew Zanatta (Beta Rho deuteron-Washington State), who provided updates on Foundation programs, successes and future projects. The group then visited downtown Chicago to shop on Michigan Avenue and take the famous architectural boat tour around the city before returning to Evanston for dinner. The weekend closed with Sunday brunch. It was a fun-filled Alpha Phi weekend for our Hearts of Gold donors. We are grateful for their support and look forward to welcoming them back for the next Hearts of Gold weekend, scheduled for Sept. 7-9, 2007. For more information about how to join Hearts of Gold, please contact Susan Barrick at sbarrick@alphaphi.org.
Members of the Foundation’s Hearts of Gold giving society enjoy a special weekend in the Chicago area.
