Elon University Fraternity and Sorority Life raised more than $20,000 for Habitat for Humanity.
This year, Elon’s Greek Week was all about giving back and strengthening the community. Greek organizations united to raise funds for Habitat for Humanity, a chosen philanthropy for Fraternity and Sorority Life since 2022.
With a total of $20,249 raised in just three days, the team of members from Alpha Omicron Pi, Alpha Epsilon Pi and Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. took the lead.
The week was packed with meaningful events and collaborations. The Greek community joined with the Kernodle Center for Civic Life’s Service Week and Phoenix Athletics for activities like Showdown at Schar, with the basketball teams, Special Olympics, Boys & Girls Club Field Day, Campus Kitchen, treat-making for Burlington Animal Shelter and the annual Red Cross Donation Drive.
“My favorite part about Greek Week is seeing our affiliate students be so passionate about Greek Week,” said Alexis Swider, associate director of student involvement. “From the service opportunities to Greek Dance, it is incredible to see four full councils come together in unity for the same goal.”
Greek Week has become a cherished tradition that brings the Elon and Alamance communities together, building connections that extend far beyond campus. It’s a powerful reminder that, together, we can make a lasting impact.
