We continue to raise money for Reading is Fundamental. A portion of our proceeds go to the national philanthropy, but we also work directly with the RIF chapter in Opelika, AL. We also have a lot of girls in our chapter that donate a lot of their time towards Auburn University Dance Marathon.
We chose RIF because it is Kappa's national philanthropy , and it Opelika has a local chapter.
==Highlights of 2017==
This year the Epsilon Eta chapter was involved in a RIF distribution day, shop nights, had our Kappa Con Queso event, our Kappaccino, and several benefit nights. As a chapter we received the Bettie Locke Award for Outstanding Panhellenic Participation. This award seeks to recognize a collegiate chapter that exemplifies the true spirit of belonging to the National Panhellenic Council, “upholding the traditions, fine standards, and values long held by Auburn women.” We also raised money and donated to relief for the flooding in Houston, to support our sisters who were affected by the flood. Our chapter also had trouble filling our sorority hall, we overcame it by having the freshmen sign the housing contract the night of bid night. Our chapter donates money to Reading is Fundamental and the Kappa foundation. We have been chosen to host a Girls' Academy, so money is also being raised for that event.
In 2017, Auburn added a new nursing school building to the campus and added the Mell building to the Library. Einstein's Bagels was added in the Haley Center, and RBD Café was added into the library. We continue to hold our chapter meetings in our chapter room on campus.
