Our Events
Red dress gala
We held our inaugural Red Dress Gala in November 2021. Red Dress Gala is Alpha Phi’s silent auction philanthropy. Families, friends, and alumni were invited to an elegant dinner and reception during Alpha Phi’s Parents Weekend. We had guest speakers from UF Health Shands women’s cardiology and the Alpha Phi Foundation. Proceeds from the Red Dress Gala go to the Alpha Phi Foundation. Our first gala was very successful and we raised over $12,000!
Phifa
In the spring, we held our annual Alpha Phifa philanthropy event. Alpha Phifa is a bubble soccer tournament played between other Greek chapters and student organizations. Our chapter women had so much fun coaching teams and supporting a great cause. All proceeds from the event benefit the Alpha Phi Foundation.
Mac n Phis
​
Mac n Phis is our other spring philanthropy event. It is a macaroni and cheese bar fundraiser benefiting the Alpha Phi foundation. The event is open to students at the University of Florida and the local community. We had our first sit-down event in 2020 and sold 350 tickets! In 2021, we introduced our to-go style Mac n Phis event, pre-selling tickets and serving mac n cheese in accordance with COVID-19 regulations. We love coming together to raise money for our philanthropy while also having a yummy dinner!
