"Chapter Summary
This year started out great for the Beta Lambda chapter. We worked with one of your philanthropy orginizations organizations (Habitat For Humanity) to help build a house in champaigncampaign. We attended study parties at the house, and participated in other sisterhood events ice skating and bachelor watch parties at the chapter house. 2 new members joined our chapter. Sadly, our semester got cut short due to COVID 19 and we had to finish our last 8 weeks of classes online. During those last 8 weeks, we were able to initate initiate our 2 new members during Kappa’s first ever zoom initationinitiation. We returned to school in the fall due to COVID, but our semester looked a little different. We held recruitment over zoom and were able to initate initiate 43 new member over zoom. Bid day looked very different as well but we made sure everyone was staying safe with masks and social distancing! We were not able experence experience this semester like our others, but we were able to have one sisterhood event outdoors at Curtis Apple Orchard.
We chose Habitat For Humanity as a philanthropy this year because we are able support the local chapter of H4H in Champaign. We chose Reading is Fundamental because it gives book to underprivileged kids to help give them resources that they would not have otherwise. -----------
We implemented a social media awareness campaign this year to promote diversity, equity and inclusion. We had a virtual Founders Day celebration over zoom during a chapter meeting. We read the Founders Day script and promoted Founders Day on social media as well.

Your efforts will ensure --Highlights of 2021-- This year we were still actively in the pandemic and under strict quarantine guidelines. Our sisters still managed to find safe and fun ways to stay involved. In the Spring, we had virtual study hours, virtual sisterhood events (including a fun Kahoot competition to raise money for our philanthropies), and all “normal” chapter activities taking place over zoom. We implemented the first ever “Key Week” in order to still fundraise for our philanthropies since we could not be in-person. In the Spring, we recruited and initiated 1 new member! In the Fall, our university finally began to move towards our new-normal. For the first time in over a year we were finally able to begin to be in person again. With certain precautions in place, we took part in a hybrid recruitment and were able to safely have an in person bid-day! We were also able to initiate 38 new members in an in-person initiation! The local philanthropy Beta Lambda supports is Habitat for Humanity. We appreciate the incredible work they are able to do for the families in need in our local community. Our chapter supported Kappa’s philanthropy by hosting a variety of events. We hosted a virtual Key Week and had fundraisers at local restaurants around campus! We are excited to begin our fun in-person events in the coming year. The Beta Lambda Chapter has done a complete lot of things to add support for Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion. In the spring, we had a DEI Program and accurate history we began doing weekly wellness letters that focused on a new topic each week to not only better our members but to further our training on lots of your DEI topics. With the interest into these letters the executive board was able to begin adding a DEI officer. In the fall, we added this position to the official slate. In the spring semester, we remained having all of our events virtually to remain within our local and university guidelines. It was hard on our sisters as we desperately wanted things to go back to normal so we could see each other. We recruited and initiated 1 new member virtually. Our sisters worked hard to find creative ways to meet virtually and stay engaged, we hosted study hours over zoom, took a yoga class over zoom, etc. Moving into the fall semester our University and Panhellenic board made requirement and precaution changes that left us feeling safe enough to begin working towards being back in person. We were able to hold Formal Recruitment in a hybrid set up. All other chapter for future generations events were able to enjoybe held in person. Most excitingly we initiated 38 girls in person!
