Pizza Parties for the She’s the First*{Campus} All-Stars!

We told you a few months ago about the winners of the Fall 2011 Campus Awards…the She’s the First chapters at Hofstra, Northwood High, and the University of Notre Dame. Now that the spring semester is coming to a close, our campus chapters are again ready to apply for the title of “Most Creative,” “Most Social,” or “Most Financially Successful” chapter. Before those results are in, let’s took a look at what last semester’s winners did with their prize–a pizza party for their whole chapter!

She’s the First*{Hofstra} was the Most Social winner for their awesome use of Twitter, Facebook, and social media during November’s Tie-Dye Cupcake Bake-Off. At their party, the members put their heads together to brainstorm future fundraisers, and fueled by pizza, that meeting was where they came up with their ideas for the rest of the semester. Chapter president Chelsea Tirrell told us “Having the pizza party was a small way of reminding us what happens when work hard. A reward is always present. Whether it’s materialistic (like pizza), or not (like being able to sponsor five girls), hard work never goes unnoticed.”

Our Most Financially Successful winner, She’s the First*{Notre Dame}, that raised over $1000 during the fall semester to re-sponsor three girls in Nepal, held their pizza party during their weekly meeting. Says graduating officers Casey Kraft and Monica Townsend, “The pizza party was a great way to celebrate after the hard work of fundraising was over. It’s nice to be recognized–by She’s the First and by Notre Dame: we raised the most money of any first year club on campus this year!”

Finally, Imam Siddiqi, co-president of She’s the First*{Northwood High}, our Most Creative winner said, “I have to say that our club was really excited to be recognized as the most creative club. Making cake pops for bake sales and New Year cards for girls at the Kisa Project was loads of fun and for a great cause, but earning an amazing California Pizza Kitchen pizza party for our efforts made it even more rewarding! Members have become more motivated to keep our title ”

There you have it, hard work that pays off in a delicious way! Good luck to all of our chapters in the next Campus Awards, coming soon!
