UVA Chi Omega Matching Fund for Anti-racism
Donation protected
Lambda Gamma is a chapter of purposeful, intentional women; and as such, we refuse to stay silent on the horrific injustices that Black Americans have faced—past and present. Silence is not an option. We believe that our platform and privilege should be used to condemn racism, hatred, and bigotry. ⠀

“If we are to keep Chi Omega's "welfare ever at heart," it begins and ends with the safety of our individual members and our communities. We must take steps toward these goals by educating ourselves and choosing to take part in these conversations. This serves as our starting point for a larger conversation and resources to come, and as a charge for each of you to join us in speaking up.” @chiomegaxo⠀
⠀
We believe that action leads to change. We are raising money for the Charlottesville Chapter of the National Coalition of 100 Black Women, the Albemarle-Charlottesville Chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and the Richmond Community Bail Fund.
UVA Chi Omega pledges to match up to $1000 raised by friends and family on this gofundme page for these organizations.
