Rock-A-Thon Success!

Congratulations to our Epsilon Epsilon chapter at CSU Bakersfield on their tremendous Rock-A-Thon. The chapter raised over $5,000 for the Phi Sigma Sigma Foundation. Their hard work and outstanding fundraising will support those with kidney disease, fund scholarships and grants for our sisters and support outstanding leadership programming for our sisterhood.

After months of hard work and dedication from each chapter member, Epsilon Epsilon's 2007 ROCK-A-THON for Phi Sigma Sigma Foundation was a HUGE success! Over $5100 was raised...and we are STILL counting! As always, the event had a great turnout from local alumnae, other Greek organizations, CSUB faculty, students and the general public. We were even featured for a guest interview on a local radio station prior to the event. Over $2000 in prizes were donated by local business for the raffle giveaway and over 1000 raffle tickets were sold! New this year, sisters were able to receive donations online! The event featured tables for both the Phi Sigma Sigma Foundation and The National Kidney Foundation, including organ donor sign ups! This event is just an example of how women can unite to make a difference! Through hard work and dedication we were able to reach our fundraising goal...and then AIM HIGHER! I am proud to be part of such an amazing organization and contribute my part for such worthy causes. The Epsilon Epsilon Chapter dedicates their annual ROCK-A-THON in memory of sister Jenine Weirather.

Kudos to Phi Sigma Sigma -Epsilon Epsilon, I had the pleasure of going out and it was great to see all of those Gamma Phi Beta Ladies out there and the sisters from Theta Upsilon, and all our alumnae sisters!
