Approving other organizations can get tricky, and I hope was done in advance. I could easily see one member trying to get escorting patients to an Abortion clinic for hours and another trying to get making sandwiches for lunches for those protesting outside...

Sometimes it isn't even that clear though. I know APO chapters who do fundraisers for Autism Speaks and I know people who *hate* the organization...
