Make-A-Wish Foundation
The Make-A-Wish Foundation is Chi Omega Fraternity's National Philanthropy. Since the start of our alliance, Chi Omegas have made a difference in many children's lives through volunteering time, talents, and dollars. The Make-A-Wish Foundation has honored Chi Omega for the incredible volunteer efforts of our members.



The mission of the Make-A-Wish Foundation is to grant the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions to enrich the human experience with hope, strength and joy. The Mu Beta chapter of Chi Omega held their annual Bowl-A-Thon on April 2, 2008 to benefit Make-A-Wish. We were able to raise over $25,000, which was enough money to grant five wishes to local children. We are proud to support this organization and feel blessed that our contributions help enrich the lives of children right here in Georgia.

For more information on the Make-A-Wish Foundation, please visit the web site at www.wish.org.
Also visit the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Georgia and Alabama at http://www.ga-al.wish.org.



"Make-a-Wish Foundation is one of the most wonderful organizations that I have ever worked with--the kids and their familes are amazing and working with them is so rewarding!  I love Make-a-Wish and would encourage anyone to get involved with this organization!"

Our Story
It all began on April 5, 1895, at the University of Arkansas when four young women, with the help of a local dentist, established the secrets and symbolism that today bind over 260,000 women. This small band of women founded Chi Omega after realizing a need for an organization that would foster both friendship and respect for the potential and inherent value of women. Over the years, Chi Omega has provided its members with unique opportunities in leadership, scholarship, and lifelong friendship - striving to provide each Sister with a commitment to personal integrity, excellence in academic and intellectual pursuits, intergenerational participation, community service, leadership opportunities and social enrichment.

Welcome
The Mu Beta Chapter of Chi Omega, founded on April 21, 1922, was the second sorority at the University of Georgia. It was founded by Mrs. Arthur Gannon, with Mrs. Claude Chance being the first pledge. Over the years it has grown from one room in Peabody Hall moving almost every year in the first eight years. In 1930, they rented the home of Mrs. Charles Phinizy and finally bought the property in 1939. That property is now the home of the Gamma Phi Beta sorority.

In 1961, Mu Beta chapter moved to their brand new home at 324 South Milledge Avenue, which was the former site of the Billups - Phinizy house. Although the Chi Omega house appears small from the front, the dormitory area can accomodate 69 girls, making it one of the largest sorority houses at UGA. This allows all of the sophomores and executive board to live in the house. The front of the house has a large chapter room, an old-fashioned parlor room, a kitchen for our chefs, and a dining room where breakfast, lunch, and dinner are served daily during the week. The courtyard, which is adjacent to the living quarters and the chapter room, is a great place to study on a cool fall day, to catch a few rays in the spring time, or simply to socialize. The house also touts a study room on the third floor with couches, tables, computers, printers, copiers, and study files all available as resources to the Chi Omegas.
