Sharsheret
Sharsheret, Hebrew for "chain," was founded in 2001 by Rochelle Shoretz, a former law clerk to United States Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg (Kappa), who recognized the need for a breast cancer organization that would provide culturally-sensitive support for Jewish women after her own diagnosis at age 28.

Sharsheret's programs include a one-on-one peer support network, education and outreach programs addressing the unique concerns of younger women facing breast cancer, and quality of life programs. Members of Alpha Epsilon Phi can support Sharsheret's mission to support young Jewish women facing breast cancer by spreading the word, fundraising, creating a team for local walks, runs, and marathons for breast cancer, hosting a local event, or organizing a health fair.

Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric Aids Foundation

The Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation was founded by Elizabeth Glaser (an AEΦ at the University of Wisconsin, Sigma Chapter) and two of her close friends in 1988, shortly after Elizabeth and her husband, Paul, discovered that she, along with their two children Ariel and Jake, were infected with the AIDS virus, a result of a blood transfusion. The goal of the organization is to educate people on the special issues concerning children with the AIDS virus. The foundation has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars towards AIDS research in the 15+ years since its inception at the Glaser's kitchen table. AEΦ is proud to be able to support such a worthy cause through the efforts of its members.

The Greater Community AIDS Project was organized as a not-for-profit corporation in 1985 and is governed by a Board of Directors who volunteer their time. The mission of the Greater Community AIDS Project has remained the same: To provide HIV/AIDS information and education to the community and to provide support services for persons affected by HIV/AIDS. The goal of the organization is to continue to server the community with sound, accurate, current information and HIV prevention education and to maintain and expand our support service programs to those persons who are living with HIV/AIDS and their families.
