Kappa Phi Lambda's national philanthropy is about empowering Asian American women by helping them overcome issues from domestic violence, hate crimes, economic injustice, to immigration rights. The national organization, National Asian Pacific American Women¡¯s Forum, works on a grassroots level for social and economic justice and the political empowerment of Asian and Pacific American women and girls.
The Lambda Chapter at UMBC supports the organization Believe in Tomorrow every semester through donations and community service. Believe in Tomorrow is a charity based in the city of Baltimore that works to grant children with life-threatening illnesses a wish that they aim to fulfill.
