Events

Paint War

Each October we hold our fall Philanthropic event, Paint War, with all proceeds going to Sistercare. The event, hopes to "paint away Domestic Violence", was hosted on the Greene Street Fields. This year, 700 people from different organizations on campus attended the event, were put into teams, and were given a specific paint color and a clean white sheet. The goal was for each team to keep their banner clean, despite the paint being thrown, which resulted in a lot of colorful people by the end of the event! We are so excited to host this event for a third time this upcoming fall.

The Alpha Male

In 2017, we started a new event called "The Alpha Male," which was a male beauty pageant. The event had an incredible turnout, and people were left full of laughter through different dances by the contestants and tears from Domestic Violence Survivors. Contestants were quizzed on Domestic Violence questions, had to perform a talent, and show off their personalities. Overall the event was a success and we ended the night raising over $8,500 for Sistercare. Each year Alpha Male gets better and better and has helped to keep promoting DVA!

Dance Marathon

Every year Alpha Chi Omega participates in Dance Marathon, the Children’s Miracle Network fundraiser. The 14-hour event takes place in the Strom Thurmond Fitness and Wellness Center on campus in March. Each sister who participates raises at least $119 in support of Palmetto Health Children’s Hospital. This year our sisters helped raise a record-breaking $1 million for our local Children's Hospital!
