PHILANTHROPY EVENT:

Nationally, Pi Beta Phi's philanthropies revolve around literacy. All of our philanthropic efforts go toward Read>Lead>Achieve, which seeks to inspire a lifelong love of reading that can unlock true potential creating a more literate and productive society, as well as Arrow in the Arctic and Fraternity Day of Service. Pi Beta Phi's primary fundraising events are called Pi Phi Parlor and Halo Games. Pi Phi Parlor is held for sisters, their families and members of the Michigan State University Community every fall. We offer many sweet treats from local bakeries and shops to meet everyone’s sweet tooth needs. Halo Games is an event held in IM West where teams from all over the community compete in Minute-to-Win-it challenges. The top four teams will then battle it out in a dodgeball match to decide the winner. Additionally, Pi Beta Phi’s participate in Champions are Readers, in which members visit local schools and read to the children to better their proficiency in reading.
