The service sorority, Omega Nu, has always prided themselves in their commitment in giving back to the community. With 12 chapters located throughout Northern California, this group of motivated, hardworking girls works to make the future a different place. The compassion these girls have is unveiling itself again at their next service fundraiser. The event is called Beach, Blanket, Bunco. The participants who come, will get to drink, eat dinner and play Bunco; but more importantly, they will get a chance to help raise money for a local charity.
The proceeds of this event go to the Necessities Bag Charity. This charity was created by a woman named Maureen Lutz who had breast cancer and had to receive a mastectomy. Through her own personal experience, she discovered a new perspective on how she should have prepared. Maureen Lutz now strives to help every other woman going through similar situations, by providing them with a bag of “necessities” free of charge. Since Maureen first started this charity, several other Necessities affiliates have been started. Check to see if there is one in your local area!
These women all started with a big goal in mind. However, with their big hearts and their dedication, they have managed to make a difference in the lives of several people.
