A message from our

Director of Membership

 

Hello, everyone! My name is Isabelle Vu and I am honored to serve as the 2021 Director of Membership.

 

Recruitment is a favorite time of the semester for all Helenes because we get to share our love for service, spirit, and sisterhood, and we can get to know all of you! The recruitment process is a way for you to get to know us, and decide if Helenes is the place for you on campus.

 

During their Rosebud Semester, our new members will immerse themselves in activities surrounding our three pillars. They will have the opportunity to engage themselves in service events that assist our surrounding community, show some spirit in support of the Trojan family, and create friendships that will last a lifetime!

 

Being a part of Helenes has allowed me to discover my home away from home while continuously being loved and challenged by Trojans who have grown to be my best friends and role models. I truly hope that you feel a similar love throughout our recruitment process!

 

If you have any questions, comments, or concerns about Helenes recruitment, please do not hesitate to contact me at helenesmembership@gmail.com. I can't wait to meet you at our various recruitment events and through your online application--all of which can be found here!

 

Helenes love and all of mine,

Isabelle Vu (she/her)

 

A message from our

Director of Finance

 

Hello friends! My name is Jay, and I’m so excited to serve as the 2021 Director of Finance!

 

As one of the foremost service organizations on campus, Helenes participates in a wide variety of philanthropic efforts to better serve and support the surrounding community. From hosting fun and unique fundraising events like Vintage Merch Sale and Talent Auction, to organizing donations for local nonprofits like the Downtown Women’s Center, Helenes strives to make a tangible impact both on campus and in the community organizations we work with. 

 

One of the fundamental pillars of the Helenes is sisterhood, and we as an organization aim to serve as an inclusive and uplifting space for the USC community. While we typically collect dues from all members to support our exciting org-wide events, we are also flexible for those who may not be able to afford dues or find themselves in a tough spot. In addition, the Helenes offers a variety of scholarships to cover dues during the semester so as to make our mission and our sisterhood accessible to anyone and everyone that wants to participate! If you want to know more about how dues work or our scholarship opportunities, don’t be afraid to reach out to me! 

 

Helenes love and all of mine,

Jay Krishnakumar (she/her)
