Chapter Philanthropy and Service

 

We put on three philanthropy events each year. These proceeds go directly to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Delta House of Pancakes (DHOP) is held in Winter quarter at the Tri Delta house. Everyone in the community is welcomed to come and enjoy pancakes!

The other event held in Winter quarter is called Sincerely Yours, which is a national letter-writing campaign. The chapter gathers together to write letters to friends and family to help raise awareness for St. Jude. This is our most important fundraiser.

Delta Dodgeball is held in the Spring and it is a dodgeball competition between the fraternities on campus. The girls in the chapter coach different teams to prepare them for the competition.

We are also involved with Make-A-Wish Foundation. Every Fall we put on a philanthropy event called Delta Desserts. We again invite the community of Davis to come and enjoy all of the great desserts, which are prepared by our girls! 

Here at Beta Pi we have a strong relationship with Shriners Hospital for Children. This is children’s hospital that specializes in orthopedics, burn care, spinal cord injury, and cleft lip and palates. As a chapter we try to go at least twice every quarter and visit with the children for about an hour. We play games, make crafts, and talk with the kids during their play time. Around Valentine's Day we make cards for the children of Shriners!
