Servants of All is a program to encourage our members to participate in philanthropic activities outside of our organization.

Fundraisers
The main annual fundraiser is the Maintaining the Tower fundraiser held annually in the summer. It was formerly called the Annual Fundraiser and the Summer Fundraiser but in 2014 the name was officially changed to Maintaining the Tower. This annual fundraiser is aimed to cover the operational expenses of the community and ensure our ability to lock in the best pricing for future events.
History
The Department of Community Outreach was created after the 2011 Admin Meeting.
It was transitioned from the Department of Philanthropy and part of the Department of Community Development. The Department is to put more emphasis on member projects. The former Online Events Team became the Outreach Activities Team to better reflect its updated mission of promoting not only the Wheel of Time themed festivals but also holidays and philanthropic activities.
Positions with the Department
