Philanthropy: Raising Awareness of Violence against Women
Omega Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated has dedicated itself to combating and championing domestic violence awareness and awareness of violence against women. Recognizing that violence against women hinders progression, we have broadened the scope of our National Philanthropy to include ALL forms of violence affecting our gender, including but not limited to Domestic Violence, Sexual Assault, Sexual Harassment, Sexual Mutilation, Stalking, and Human Trafficking.
Each year, Alpha Beta Chapter participates in different initiatives related to raising awareness of violence against women. These endeavors focus on issues and barriers that affect survivors, including work, school, and children. We also select a beneficiary to collaborate with us in hosting events and fundraising efforts to support this cause. We hope is to continue to making a difference in local communities throughout New York City.
