Can a chapter co-sponsor an event with an alcohol distributor?

A chapter cannot co-sponsor an event with an alcohol distributor due to the organization’s standards and policies surrounding alcohol consumption and distribution. These policies are designed to uphold the values of the sorority and to ensure that events are conducted in a responsible manner that aligns with the principles of sisterhood and integrity.

Co-sponsoring with alcohol distributors could lead to associations that are not in line with the organization’s commitment to promoting a healthy and positive image, especially to new members and potential recruits. This policy is also in place to avoid any potential legal issues or reputational damage that could arise from such partnerships.

Engaging with alcohol distributors may also lead to conflicts of interest and could shift the focus of events away from their intended purpose, which is often centered around community and bonding activities rather than promoting alcohol consumption. Keeping the chapter's activities separate from alcohol distributors helps maintain a safe and welcoming environment for all members and guests.
