	+ ==Background== + '''Alpha Phi Omega''' is a national community service based co-ed ["Fraternities" fraternity]. It is the biggest fraternity in the country with over 700 chapters, has already expanded into the Philippines and is now seeking to do so in Canada and Australia. ["UC Davis"] is home to the Iota Phi chapter of Alpha Phi Omega, which has been around since May 27th, 1951. When it first became a ["Fraternities" fraternity] it was all-men, but went co-ed in 1976. Some famous members include: ["Mrak Hall" Emil Mrak] (of ["Mrak Hall"]) of the third pledge class, as well as ["Hutchison Hall" Claude Hutchison] (an old ["UC Davis"] dean), and ["Ryerson Hall" Knowles Ryerson].

There are two Rush periods a year, one around mid-October and the second around mid-February. They have a membership of about 100 active members and 70-100 pledges per term. To keep professional, APO in California is a dry fraternity that does not haze. The service requirement is a mere 18 hours within 10 weeks, though members are encouraged to do as much as they are able. + + ==Service==

They have a membership of about 100 active members and 70-100 pledges per term.	+ With such a large membership, APO not only participates in community events, but has also created its own within Davis. Some examples include [http://www.iotaphi.org/wiki/Dance_4_Kids Dance 4 Kids], [http://www.iotaphi.org/wiki/Santa_4_Kids Santa 4 Kids] and its Spring equivalent, Spring Fling. Typically, members serve at annual community events (Picnic Day, ["Bike Auction"]), help schools with charity events, work with animal-preservation groups (["SPCA"], Homeward Bound Golden Retriever Rescue), help with environmental projects (campus cleanups, ["Tree Davis"]), blood drives, among many other projects.
Line 15:	Line 30:
	+ ==Need Volunteers?== + + While UC Davis' Iota Phi Chapter serves year round, organizations are especially likely to get large numbers of volunteers (easily 10-20 people) between October and May. Any organization or individual in need of volunteers for their service project can contact the chapter's Service Vice Presidents at service@iotaphi.org. Since Alpha Phi Omega prides itself on the quality of service it brings to the community, you can expect volunteers to avoid using cell phones during service, be timely, be attentive, and act appropriately around particular audiences. If for any reason you feel volunteers are not up to par, you may lodge a complaint with the Service Vice Presidents to have offenders punished.
