PHILANTHROPY

building strong girls

Here at Gamma Phi Beta, one of our four core values is labor. One way in which we fulfill this value is through extensive participation in philanthropic activities and events. Gamma Phi Beta's philanthropic motto is "Building Strong Girls." The organization we support is Girls on the Run and our mission is to show

young girls how to grow into a confident

women through interactive games and

exercises that teach them how to develop

self-respect and healthy lifestyles.

ANNUAL PHILANTHROPY EVENTS

MOONBALL SAND VOLLEYBALL TOURNAMENT

During the 2018 spring semester, our chapter hosted our first ever sand volleyball tournament called Moonball. People from all over the Manhattan community make teams and play every year. Throughout the event various prizes were raffled off as well as a prize for the winning team. We raise funds for Girls on the Run of the Flint Hills!

BUILDING STRONG GIRLS WEEK (BSGW)

BSGW happens during the week of Moonball. Each day of the week consists of a different event all leading up to Thursday night, the night of the sand volleyball tournament. Throughout the week there are different items for purchase such as pies, penny-wars, house tours, raffle tickets, and much more; these proceeds all benefit Girls on the Run. These days include a pie-a-gphi, a percentage day at a local restaurant, tabling in the union, and ending with Moonball.

CHIPS AND CHEESE WITH

THE G PHI B'S

This past year, we held Chips and Cheese with the GPhiB's. The event was held at the Gamma Phi Beta house, where we served a dinner of loaded nachos and Celsius. Our girls worked hard preparing months in advance to sell tickets, spread awareness, and set up for the event. The funds raised go towards Girls on the Run of the Flint Hills.
