ALPHA PHI
WELCOME TO THE PHI-NEST SORORITY AT UC BERKELEY...
The Alpha Phi Foundation
The Lambda Chapter of Alpha Phi supports the Alpha Phi Foundation, one of the oldest Greek foundations for women. Its mission is to empower women to be generous givers. We raise funds for programs that advance leadership development, encourage academic excellence, improve women's heart health, support sisters in need, and educate about the value of philanthropy.
We hold our philanthropy close to our hearts, as its focus is on supporting research and education for women's heart health. Whether we are hosting our Red Dress Gala, Heart Health Week or Cardiac Arrest at UC Berkeley, the Alpha Phis are always finding fun and exciting ways to support the Alpha Phi Foundation.

Every fall, the women of Alpha Phi Lambda Chapter host their annual Red Dress Gala in support of the Alpha Phi Foundation and women's heart health. This event consists of a silent and live auction, an elegant dinner, dancing, a recognition to our graduating seniors and of course, red dresses. Each sister reaches out to local businesses and organizations in the Bay Area to help put together baskets for the silent and live auction. We invite our family and friends to attend this intimate special night.
This past year we raised over $9,000 which we donated to the Alpha Phi Foundation for the research of women's heart disease.
Heart Health Week
Our spring philanthropy is a week long event, Heart Health Week, which culminates in our annual Cardiac Arrest. In a school whose heart bleeds blue and gold, Alpha Phi dedicates a week to the color RED to support cardiac care. Whether it's through selling smoothies, jumping rope on Sproul Plaza, or National Wear Red Day, we at Lambda Chapter are dedicated to bringing some heart health education and fun to the Berkeley campus!
Our Cardiac Arrest event is the culmination of our week long philanthropy. Other sororities and fraternities participate in this fun, cardio-filled event. Each team is lead through the challenge by 2-3 sisters in which they compete to win a donation to their own chapter's philanthropy.
