'''Philanthropy'''
RIF, Kappa Kappa Gamma Foundation, GIRLS Academy are organizations near and dear to our hearts. Supporting GIRLS Academy is so important to us because we see and hear the impact it has on the young women in our community.
The first half of 2021, we were still under COVID-19 guidelines. This limited events that were possible, and the events we did have required masks to be worn, social distancing, and a limited number of people in attendance. Our major sisterhood in the spring included a virtual concert with the band Velcro Pygmies, which we invited actives and alumni to attend via zoom! We had another virtual initiation for our wonderful spring pledge class of 6 women. In the fall of 2021, the world was becoming normal again in Statesboro, Georgia. Mask mandates were lifted, and classes and events resumed completely normal. Recruitment this year was half virtual, half in person, and we were finally able to have a normal bid day again! Big little reveal was in person in the spring and fall! On October 2nd, 2021, we welcomed 62 amazing new members into our chapter at Zeta Upsilon’s first normal initiation since 2019! We were also able to raise our sisterhood attendance this fall! Some favorite sisterhood events included our bleach tie-dye sisterhood, a vision board sisterhood, and a Friendsgiving sisterhood that was planned by our fall ’21 girls! Zeta Upsilon was awarded platinum for Georgia Southern’s wings points again this year. We held a Founders Day brunch on October 9th. We also had a lot of firsts this semester, including our first combined trunk show with Chi Omega and Phi Mu. Zeta Upsilon held its first ever philanthropy week! This included events such as Kappa Karaoke and a cornhole tournament, as well as a raffle and our annual dinner to raise money!

'''Philanthropy'''
Zeta Upsilon locally supports G.I.R.L.S academy and the philanthropies of the winners of our first philanthropy week. These include Beta Upsilon Chi, Theta Xi, and Kappa Sigma. These are supported through our money raised from the raffle and dinner!
Our chapter hosted its first philanthropy week, as well as Kappa Kountry Dinner, which is an annual dinner formally known as Chips, Cheese, and KKGSKKGs. Zeta Upsilon also had percentage nights throughout the year at different restaurants around Statesboro to raise money.
