P.E.O. Record
An Open Letter to All Inactives
Dear P.E.O. sisters,
Have we told you lately how much we miss you? Our organization was founded on the strong bonds of friendship and without you, this sisterhood is missing a vital link. We need you to be an active part of P.E.O., both for ourselves and for the welfare of the women we support with our philanthropies.
Some of us have seasons in life that require us to focus more on family or careers. When you took your vows at initiation, we too promised our loyalty to you. Please know this is still true. Sisterhood means supporting one another at all times.
You'll appreciate the changes that have been made to local chapter meetings. Many new streamlining processes have taken effect, which gives us more time to spend socializing with each other. Where else will you find an organization filled with such talented, committed and compassionate women?
P.E.O. is also keeping up with technology in an effort to create less paperwork for everyone. Did you know that our chapter officers now complete most of their paperwork online? Our officers also appreciate the new online training modules that are accessible day or night on the P.E.O. website.
We are part of an amazing organization composed of nearly a quarter of a million members. Together we own a college and offer awards, gra nts, loans and scholarships that have provided more than $190 million. This has helped more than 80,000 women all over the world realize their educational aspirations. Internally, we provide a support system of friendship and loyalty that extends across the United States and Canada to include women in more than 6,000 local chapters.
Please remember that once you became a P.E.O., you will always be a P.E.O. We miss you! Your chapter sisters want you back. Won't you consider reinstating?
Lovingly in P.E.O.,
Your P.E.O. sisters
