The V Foundation for Cancer Research

_________________________________________________

The V Foundation for Cancer Research is in honor of Jimmy Valvano, basketball coach and cancer victim. Delta Chi officially began partnering with the V Foundation in 2006, however, between 1998 and 2006, Delta Chi chapters had donated over 200,000 hours of community service and over $1 million to the Foundation. Since then, Delta Chi chapters all over North America have all donated money and service to the Foundation. The best part is, 100% of donations go towards cancer research!

Abused Women's Aid In Crisis (AWAIC)

_________________________________________________

Abused Women's Aid In Crisis (AWAIC) is an Anchorage support group founded in Fall 1976 by women who wanted to spread awareness about domestic abuse. They regularly have presentations on abuse and how to get help in the community, and even have a safe house where women and children are allowed to stay for up to a month or longer if needed. UAA Delta Chi is happy to be supporting an organization that helps address this issue. Learn more about AWAIC here!
