The purpose of this sisterhood is relevant to the university in that it helps to foster an encouraging environment for student leaders to take roles in making change by becoming helpers to those in need through service, to achieve academic goals, and to form a support system for multi-cultural women. Not only is there emphasis on personal growth, there is also a strong emphasis on giving back to the community. The chapter’s local philanthropy is the Catholic Multicultural Center, a non-profit Catholic organization that help meet the needs of the Hispanic community.
