Houghton _ January 24, 2010
This local event is part of a nationwide "Dining with the Kappas"
fundraiser that undergraduate chapters of Kappa Alpha Psi across
the United States will be hosting on the same day. Chapters are
partnering with any restaurant of their choice, making a
percentage of the total profits of the people they bring to the
restaurant, and donating 100 percent of that money to Haiti
relief. This event is one of many efforts from the fraternity's
"iKare" (International Kappa Action Relief Effort) initiative,
which was started to help those in need in response to this
natural disaster.
"Everyone from the local community is welcome and encouraged to
eat at Joey's Seafood and Grill anytime that day to help do
their part," said Perry E. Wilson, Jr., president of the Omicron
Theta Chapter. "If we unite together as a community, we can do
many great things for the people of Haiti! This is only the
beginning of what Kappa Alpha Psi will be personally doing."
Members of the Omicron Theta Chapter will be dining at the
restaurant from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. that day to promote
attendance. To support the fundraiser, mention Kappa Alpha Psi's
name, print out
flyer
or put your meal receipt in the donation box next to the cash
register.
Locally, the Omicron Theta Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi
Fraternity, Inc., was founded on campus during the academic year
of 1999-2000. |
