Our Philanthropy

Children's Miracle Network Hospitals
The only thing our sisters enjoy more than our sisterhood is our philanthropy, Children's Miracle Network Hospitals. Phi Mu is the only sorority to be a corporate sponsor of Children's Miracle Network Hospitals (CMNH). Supporting 170 Children’s Miracle Network hospitals nationwide, Phi Mu has raised over $14 million since 1986, improving the quality of life for children everywhere. Locally, our donations and time go to the Palmetto Health Children's Hospital of Columbia, SC. We make trips to the hospital to spend time with the patients and participate in numerous philanthropic events throughout the school year to raise money and spread awareness for CMNH. Additionally, Phi Mu sisters participate in the philanthropic events of other Greek organizations, as well as community service events in the Columbia community.

Our Local Hospital

Palmetto Health Children's Hospital

​Each week, a group of sisters has the opportunity to spend time at Palmetto Health Children's Hospital getting to know some of the children who benefit from the money we raise for CMNH! Not only d
o we enjoy the hours we spend at the hospital, but it brightens our day to see the happy faces of the children we interact with. Every week our chapter brings a craft for the children to work on while at the hospital! It is another wonderful way to get more involved with CMNH and show these children how much the sisters of Phi Mu love and care about them. Our chapter is so thankful to have a Children's Miracle Network Hospital so close to our campu
s.

 Bonnamu

​During the Fall 2018 semester we held our annual event, Bonnamu, which raised over $20,000 for Palmetto Health! Sisters, miracle families and USC/Columbia community members alike all joined together at Breakers for a battle of the bands between local artists. Between ticket sales and dollar votes, audience members pick the winner who not only wins a cash prize, but also an opportunity to play at a future Phi Mu function. A diverse group of members of the South Carolina community enjoyed the event and we look forward to seeing it grow!

 Dance Marathon 

Every year, Phi Mu participates in Dance Marathon, a 14-hour event at Strom fundraising for the kids of Palmetto Health Children's Hospital. This event is extra close to our hearts as it benefits our own philanthropy! During the event, a 15-minute line dance is taught by morale leaders who are trained to keep everyone motivated throughout the 14 hours. This year, over 100 Phi Mus participated and more than 30 of them were on One Team One Dream serving as Vice Presidents, Directors, staff members, and morale leaders. Dance Marathon surpassed their goal by raising a grand total of $1,038,156 in 2019!
