Philanthropy

Camp Fire USA

logo

Gamma Phi Beta’s International Vision is for a complete Gamma Phi Beta woman to be a leader in her community while believing in philanthropy and helping young girls through our international philanthropy, Camp Fire USA is a non-profit youth organization that helps kids develop skills that they will need for life, including leadership and self-reliance.

This past fall our chapter raised over $2,000 benefitting Camp Fire USA Heart of the Hawkeye Council . This camp in Des Moines annually serves over 12, 500 participants in over half of the 99 counties in Iowa. Our donation to the General Campership Fund helps eligible kids attend Hantesa or any of the day camps!

Each fall our chapter hosts a pancake dinner at 318 Pearson Ave. This past fall we held "Crescent Classic Cakes" which we fipped flapjacks, served sausage links and pour O.J. in support of Camp Fire USA.  We raised over $2,000 for Camp Fire. 

Be sure to join us next fall for another "Crescent Classic"!
