Community Outreach

Meals on Wheels.

Meals On Wheels is a non-profit organization that provides daily meals to 360+ homebound, senior citizens and congregate sites in Woodland, Davis, Winters and West Sacramento. Omega Nu has a long history of supporting this organization. For almost 20 years we have purchased and packed 360+ treat bags during the Valentine’s, Easter and Halloween holidays to provide a little cheerful surprise in the delivery to these seniors. Additionally, our members volunteer on a quarterly basis, to help assemble anywhere from 150 (Weekend) up to 350 (National Holiday) meal bags.

College Scholarships.

Our organization’s primary fundraising goal is to support our scholarship program. Each year, we award multiple scholarships to local high school students pursuing higher education. Recipients are selected based on academic achievement, leadership qualities, community involvement, and demonstrated financial need. In 2024, we awarded $10,000 in scholarships to outstanding and deserving high school seniors.

Woodland Healthcare Foundation.

Omega Nu has a history of partnering with Woodland Healthcare Foundation to support causes centered on women and children dating back to 1966. Over the years we have donated a total of $25,000 to Woodland Healthcare Foundation, with our most recent gift supporting the Family Birthing Center. In 2019, the Alpha Gamma Chapter of Omega Nu was honored to join Woodland Healthcare Foundation’s Fairchild Society recognizing their philanthropic partners. 

Annual Coat Drive.

For 17 years we have organized an Annual Coat Drive every Fall to collect coats for those in need in the upcoming Winter. For the past several years our coat donations have benefited Empower Yolo, a local non-profit that assists individuals and families escaping domestic abuse, sexual assault and human trafficking. In 2025 we proudly delivered our largest collection of new and gently used coats to Empower Yolo (photo above). By partnering with local businesses and organizations like Wallace Safe & Lock, Kaia Fit, Van Beurden Insurance, Woodland Wonder School, NeatWorks LLC, Rotary Club of Woodland and Yolo Fliers Club as well as neighborhoods like Wild Wings and Faria Park willing to host barrels, we were humbled and amazed by the outpouring of community support to make a huge impact this year.
