Sigma Phi Society is excited to share information about our recent Philanthropy Weekend that raised money and donated time to three great organizations.
The Alpha of Wisconsin is proud to announce that our Humorology cast took 3rd place at the annual show this past weekend. Congrats to our director Sean Benedict (F'16) and the Sigs that participated Zane Matz, Hadi Hashemi, and Max Sanchez (F'16)! They put in a lot of blood, sweat, and tears and the cast raised $15,000 for the Rainbow Project to combat mental health and domestic violence. In addition, our Sigma Phi Relay for Life team met our goal and raised $1,200 for the American Cancer Society. That puts us in the top 15% of registered teams. Thanks to Walker Fanning (F'14), Evan Pohlkamp (F'15), Simon France, Matt Dornink (both F'16), Joud Jarjour, and Andrew Riss (both F,17). To top it off, 7 Sigs volunteered for 3 hours at the Second Harvest Food Bank in Madison. Simon France, Brendan Provo, Hadi Hashemi, Zane Matz, Max Sanchez, Carlo Romagnolo (all F'16), and Joud Jarjour (F'17) helped repackage frozen pizzas to ship to food pantries to feed low-income families throughout Dane County.
Over the course of the weekend, Sigma Phi's philanthropy and community service efforts helped benefit three great organizations that do fantastic work throughout the state of Wisconsin and Dane County. We look to continue working with these groups and to expand to some other great non-profits in the Madison area as our chapter continues to grow.
