 ==History==
-<span style="font-size: 14px;">The [http://foundation.alphaphi.org/ Alpha Phi Foundation] was founded in 1956, making it one of the oldest Greek women's foundations. It's purpose was to awards grants from scholarship and cardiac aid funds. Today, they still reward scholarships and help promote women's cardiac health, but they have also added quite a few other things to the list. The foundation now funds programs that promote leadership and learning opportunities, educate women about philanthropy, and assist those in need.</span>

The foundation now funds programs that promote leadership and learning opportunities, educate women about philanthropy, and assist those in need.
-<span style="font-size: 14px;">When asked about the Alpha Phi Foundation, Ann Brinkman, a Zeta Delta member at Iowa State said,</span>
+==CARDIAC CARE==
-<span style="font-size: 14px;">"I want young women of future generations to benefit from the life-long gifts of friendship, leadership and social skills that Alpha Phi gave me."</span>
+In 1946, rheumatic fever, which is a disease that causes debilitating damage to the heart, was the leading killer of children in the United States. Alpha Phi decided to help these children and others suffering from cardiac problems by donating to cardiac aid. Over the next few decades, with the help of modern antibiotic therapy, rheumatic fever became rare. Now, a new problem was forming, known as heart disease. It quickly became the #1 killer of women in North America. The Alpha Phi Foundation thought it was fitting for a women's organization to fight it. Since 1946, Alpha Phi has donated more than $1 million to support cardiac health.

-<span style="font-size: 14px;">In the fall at Drake, Alpha Phi hosts the annual Red Dress Gala. It always falls on Parent's Weekend, and helps the Phis to raise money for their foundation. During the spring, Alpha Phi hosts Fast Phi't, which is inspired by the Drake Relays. Every house on Greek Street participate in relay races and obstacle courses. Fast Phi't is completely organized by the Phi house Philanthropy team. Another fun event organized by the Phis, is "Cardiac Arrest." The week before Fast Phi't, the president of each house is "arrested," and a healthy eating contest is held. Each house then serenades the Alpha Phi house to incorporate the Phi's philanthropy and their house. Each event throughout this week is worth points, and whoever collects the most points wins the Philanthropy at the end of the week.</span>

		+	====<span style="font-size: 14px;">Mission Statement:</span>====
		+	==<span style="font-size: 14px;">"Alpha Phi Foundation empowers women to be generous givers.

		+
		+	==<span style="font-size: 14px;">History</span>==
		+	===<span style="font-size: 14px;">The [http://foundation.alphaphi.org/ Alpha Phi Foundation] was founded in 1956, making it one of the oldest Greek women's foundations. It's purpose was to awards grants from scholarship and cardiac aid funds. Today, they still reward scholarships and help promote women's cardiac health, but they have also added quite a few other things to the list. The foundation now funds programs that promote leadership and learning opportunities, educate women about philanthropy, and assist those in need.</span>===
		+
		+
		+	===<span style="font-size: 14px;">When asked about the Alpha Phi Foundation, Ann Brinkman, a Zeta Delta member at Iowa State said,</span>===
		+	===<span style="font-size: 14px;">"I want young women of future generations to benefit from the life-long gifts of friendship, leadership and social skills that Alpha Phi gave me."</span>===
		+
		+	==<span style="font-size: 14px;">CARDIAC CARE</span>==
		+	===<span style="font-size: 14px;">In 1946, rheumatic fever, which is a disease that causes dehabillitating damage to the heart, was the leading killer of children in the United States. Alpha Phi decided to help these children and others suffering from cardiac problems by donating to cardiac aid. Over the next fewdecades, with the help of modern antibiotic therapy, rheumatic fever became rare. Now, a new problem was forming, known as heart disease. It quickly became the #1 killer of women in North America. The Alpha Phi Foundation thought it was fitting for a women's organization to fight it. Since 1946, Alpha Phi has donated more than $1 million to support cardiac health.</span>===
