Circle of Sisterhood Foundation

I just received an announcement about this 501(c)(3) org and I think it sounds pretty cool!
http://www.circleofsisterhood.org/home

Here's an excerpt:
In the late 1800s in America, women stood together for the right to go to college and thus began the sorority movement. Now, 140 years later and more than 4 million strong, we vow to continue our Founders' legacy by standing together again to help girls and women go to school around the world.

The Circle of Sisterhood Foundation will leverage the collective wisdom and influence of sorority women to support entities around the world that remove educational barriers for girls and women, uplifting them from poverty and oppression.

Global studies:
educating a girl to at least fifth grade is a major factor in impoverished societies to:
1. Decrease infant mortality rates.
2. Decrease /stabilize population growth.
3. Significantly improve the basic quality of health and life over a generation.

Ginny Carroll, the AXiD who started it, is pretty amazing. I had the privledge of meeting her and listening to her speak at a volunteer leadership conference a few years ago. She speaks all over the country to all fraternities and sororities. I was not surprised at all to see that she wanted to start something like this.

I am interested to know what other sororities are represented on the board besides Alpha Xi. I'm sure it's a diverse group, and so easy to get with the number of fraternity/sorority headquarters in Indy.
