This past weekend our chapter president, Mia Caltagirone, had the incredible opportunity of attending the Alpha Phi International Convention in California.
“Last week I had the privilege and honor of attending the 74th biennium Alpha Phi International Convention in Palm Springs representing the Epsilon chapter. I’m very appreciative of all the seminars and ceremonies I got to go to and participate in, listening to the soon to be first Alpha Phi in space, as well as meet alumni and incredible fellow presidents. This chapter has given me the opportunity to become a leader and grow as a person. Being surrounded by all the collegiate and alumni members was the most inspirational and uplifting feeling I have ever experienced.
In one night, at the Red Dress Impact Celebration dinner, we raised over $100,000 for our philanthropy - the Alpha Phi Foundation which supports research for Women’s Heart Health. This truly shows the passion we have for our philanthropy. Our chapter was also recognized and awarded for our philanthropic efforts by receiving the award, “Chapter Cumulative Gifts of $500,000”. I’m so proud of all the women in my chapter for all the work they put in these past 2 years at our philanthropy events to raise that amount and to make such an impact in Women’s Heart Health research. The connections made and all of the accomplishments celebrated throughout the convention by all of the chapters across the US and Canada speaks volumes to the culture of the Alpha Phi sisterhood. I will forever hold this experience very close to my heart and cannot thank Alpha Phi enough for everything it has brought me.”
Thank you for representing our chapter, Mia ❤️
