Beta Theta Pi’s 4 Square Philanthropy Submitted by Eric Sachs, Beta Theta Pi Beta Theta Pi stands for mutual aid and assistance, dedication to the community, and scholarship. Through hard work and dedication, we are able to accomplish all three of these objectives through our annual Four Square philanthropy. This year signifies the third year that we have hosted the event. It was held on April 13th, 2008 on Fairfield way. The beneficiary of the Four Square tournament was St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. St Jude is a research hospital focused on advancing cures and finding means of prevention for fatal illnesses for kids. This hospital treats patients from all around over the United States and the world, regardless of their race, religion, nationality or ability to pay. Families never receive a bill for medical treatment rendered at St. Jude, including hospitalization, medication, travel, and lodging, if need be. For this reason, St. Jude thrives off of philanthropic efforts and were able to provide them with an immense amount of support through the Four Square tournament. All participants enjoyed food, music, and prizes while supporting St. Jude’s mission. Food was provided by a donation from Dominoe’s pizza. Everyone had a great time, despite the cold weather. Overall, our philanthropy went very well and we look forward to hosting it again next year. Congratulations to Zeta Beta Tau on winning this year’s tournament and an especially big thanks to all the different fraternities and sororities who participated and helped in supporting St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and Beta Theta Pi’s efforts.
