The Kappa Tau chapter of Phi Gamma Delta, popularly known as “FIJI”, has improved tremendously over the past year. We added 32 men in the fall class and an additional 14 in the spring class.
For community service, we have done a lot of work with Care Cuts this semester, feeding the homeless and providing them with new clothes. So far, we have already tallied more community service hours this semester than we did all last year. Regarding philanthropy, we support the United Service Organizations by hosting a Fiji Island Week. We also raised over $30,000 over the past year in support of Testicular Cancer research and in honor of our brother, Nick Pell. Each year, we host our annual graduate brother event, Pig Dinner. We have roughly 50 graduate brothers in attendance each year, showing our graduate brothers have extensive involvement in our chapter.
Since the fall of 2019, we have grown our chapter from 51 active brothers to 131. We look forward to adding another excellent group of men into our chapter this coming year.
