Alpha Chi Omega from the University of Arizona is doing a phenomenal job of spreading the word about domestic violence. The girls have been working together as a unit to show that there is more to being in a sorority. They are doing great community work and deserve to be recognized.
More than one hundred members of Alpha Chi Omega lined the UA Mall with luminaries Tuesday night to raise awareness about domestic violence on the UA campus.
For the luminaries event, AXO members put lights inside paper bags with messages they wanted to spread about domestic violence. Domestic violence awareness is AXO’s philanthropy event, and the luminary ceremony occurred during the National Domestic Violence Awareness Month.
After placing the bags along the wall, Caitli Walsh-Betteker, domestic violence chair of AXO, addressed the group and shared the “One Love Pledge” that the members of the sorority signed.
Those who took the pledge promised to become educated about domestic violence, share that information with others, and to change social norms around domestic violence and the way people talk about the issue.
