An Open Letter Of Love For The Alpha Omicron Pi Sisterhood

Dear Stella, Jessie, Helen and Elizabeth,

I never pictured myself becoming a member of a Greek organization. I signed up for recruitment with my friends because I thought it would be something fun to do. Little did I know, I would find a home within my chapter. You created this organization in 1897 with an everlasting bond and it changed the lives of thousands of women across the world. I am forever indebted to you because I have never felt more loved than I do when I walk into our house.

I have been changed for good because of Alpha Omicron Pi. I was welcomed into a loving chapter of over eighty women, giving me the sisters my parents never did. I can rely on these women for anything I may need, even if it is just a comment on my Instagram post. Together we are able to influence positive change within our community through philanthropy events and other activities. I have never seen a more dedicated group of people than my sisters at our philanthropy events. I am inspired every single day by these women and their dedication to change the world, one child at a time.

Alpha Omicron Pi has taught me to inspire ambition. I strive to help others and inspire them with the love I have for my chapter. I have learned how to be a better student, a better friend, and a better leader. Being in a sorority gives you the opportunity to improve yourself in all aspects. Through leadership roles, or just simply by being present, you are always given a chance to create a beneficial situation for yourself. Having an environment of women who love and support you is so important. Knowing you have people all across the country who hold the same values dear is irreplaceable.

We all are meant to be sisters and you made that possible. So, thank you for creating this sisterhood. I am so grateful for every sister you have given me and I wear my letters with the most pride and alpha love in my heart.

Love,

Your Sister

One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone does not try to help their self before asking others. How can someone else be expected to help you if you do not first do that yourself? I'm all about helping those that need it when the time comes, however whenever someone does not even attempt to help him or herself first then that becomes a huge problem. As we all have learned, people tend to take advantage of us in one way or another. I am sure we all read this short story when we were younger and it follows that same principle:
