I would doubt it. Without giving names, I am not involved with any chapters at all, but what I hear of some of them is indeed a lot of useful activity including fundraising, project proposals etc, whereas I only hear of others when they get involved into some quarrels or controversies. May be this is then not so much of a misinterpretation.
