Texas Chapter Increases Membership Acceptance
The Alpha
Phi Lambda Chapter at Blinn College - Bryan Campus in Texas recently
explored new ways to increase membership acceptance. This semester, the
chapter sent potential new members e-mails inviting them to accept membership
online. The idea was presented to them on the recent "Ten Proven Ways to Increase
Membership Acceptance" informational piece the chapter received with
the latest recruiting materials. Through PAM - Personal Assistant Manager
for advisors, they were able to generate passcodes and mailing labels for
potential new members who had not joined online or submitted an application.
Each potential new member received a personalized email with their unique
passcode encouraging them to review the benefits of membership and accept
membership online. In only 24 hours, their membership acceptance grew
by 50 percent! Way to go, Alpha Phi Lambda!

Chapter Aids in the Efforts of The Salvation Army
The Alpha Psi
Psi Chapter at Carroll Community College in Maryland sponsored
a Dress a Bear project in conjunction with the Salvation Army. The
Salvation Army donated 130 teddy bears to be dressed with children's clothing
and later distributed as Christmas gifts to children in need. Students,
faculty and staff donated money and baby clothes to dress the new teddy bears.
Chapter members and advisors were available to assist patrons with dressing
the bears, accept donations and serve hot chocolate and candy canes. The
event was promoted through the local newspaper, email and posters. The
event was a success with 108 dressed teddy bears to be given back to the Salvation
Army to distribute as Christmas presents for children in need. Keep up the
good work, Alpha Psi Psi!
