Midwest Floods (2008) Community Service

I'm sure there are and will be many other instances of Greek community service in areas affected by the devastating flooding.

Here's just one story from the Des Moines Register involving Sig Eps at Drake, as well as others in the community:

Excerpts:
Kevin Teets of Sigma Phi Epsilon at Drake University got the call from the United Way of Central Iowa the afternoon of June 10. The agency was looking for lodging for about 20 AmeriCorps volunteers arriving the following day.

"The answer was immediately, 'Yes, we can house people,' " said Teets, house director and resident scholar.

The fraternity was able to accommodate all of the volunteers, who stayed four days . . . .
