The Greater Philadelphia Ivy Connection is having its first Foundation fundraiser tomorrow called "Strike Out Heart Disease" - it's a bowling tournament. It's the first time we've really spent time planning, budgeting, and making a big effort to make this work, and so far we've got a good turnout and hopefully we will make a sizeable donation to the Foundation. Anyway, the philanthropy chair and I are very nervous about this going well, so please send us some good thoughts and vibes for tomorrow!!
Well, we ended the event at 3 today, and I'm still on cloud nine!! It was an absolute and total success!!!! The chapter raised $300 for the Alpha Phi Foundation, and $65 for our own funds in a separate 50/50 Challenge - fortunately the winner of the challenge donated his half of the funds back to the chapter! People really had a great time, we got lots of wonderful compliments, and it was fantastic community exposure for not only our chapter but the Foundation and its works as well!!!
We've got pictures up on our <a href="http://www.phillyivyconnection.com> website</a> if you want to see them - we'll be adding more as the weekend progresses!
Woohoo!!!
