Greek Life raising money for the American Red Cross!

This past Saturday marked the first Powder Puff Flag Football Tournament, a fundraising event coordinated by University of Georgia’s Delta Sigma Phi fraternity. All proceeds from the tournament went to the American Red Cross, the fraternity’s national philanthropy.

During the tournament, fraternity members served as referees, provided lunch and set up a first aid station for team participants. Five sororities participated in the intramural-style tournament with a minimum of seven players on each team. Alpha Gamma Delta proved champions of the day and took home the trophy although everyone present had a great time.

“This year was really about establishing the event; it was nice that we were able to give the American Red Cross some money,” said Brandon Breslin, philanthropy chair of the fraternity.

In appreciation, the Red Cross honored the members of Delta Sigma Phi for their generous donation. The fraternity seeks to expand the tournament next year in hopes of raising more money and also has a pageant, Miss Sorority Row, lined up for the Spring which will also benefit the Red Cross.
