The Fraters of Pi Delta Chapter hosted a “Twister” tournament to raise money for the Burn Unit at Children’s Hospital on November 19, 2010. Brothers set up registration tables around campus weeks prior to the event in order to get as many participants and donations as possible. Not only did the brothers raise $1,053.00, but they were also able to provide great entertainment and prizes for the participants. First prize received an IPOD Touch, second prize was a VIZIO Blu Ray player, and third place received a George Foreman grill. The director of the burn unit at Children’s Hospital opened the tournament by thanking everyone for their participation and reminding everyone how important it is to help those in need. Because this is the first time Pi Delta has hosted such an event, we anticipate it to be an annual philanthropy and it will only become better in the future. Thanks to everyone that gave and made this such a success!!
