Congratulations! Our current World Understanding project – C.H.E.A.R. has almost reached our goal of raising $50,000. The project will help build dormitories, classrooms, a library/media center, a kitchen and offices.

Please continue to share information about the project and donate so we can reach our goal. There is lots of information about the project on our international website under the Foundation tab. There is also a “flipbook” with information about our previous World Understanding Projects to share with members and a book list of interest for world understanding.

Applications for the next project have been delayed due to the current global uncertainty but chapters are encouraged to continue to think ahead for a future project.

In the meantime, you may find the following websites of interest.
Cultural Norms from Around the World
50 Unique Customs from Around the World
