For most, October means leaves changing color, Halloween, candy,, pumpkins, and midterms. For Zetas, October is much more than that. Our philanthropy is Breast Cancer Education and Awareness, and October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. We make sure to do everything we can each October to raise money and bring awareness to this serious health issue.
Zeta Tau Alpha's Fall 2017 Think Pink Week has been a great success. We had events like a Chili Cook Off, three days of tabling for Best Chest penny wars, a scavenger hunt, and a flag football tournament. One of our most important events, however, is our Brighten Up Workshop. Zeta is partnered with Bright Pink, an organization dedicated to educating women about breast cancer. Each semester, Zeta holds an educational Bright Pink sponsored workshop to teach women how to be better prepared to prevent and fight breast cancer.
Beyond Think Pink Week, Zetas still continue to give their time throughout the month of October. This weekend is the American Cancer Society's Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk, and many of our members will be volunteering our time. The best part of being involved in such an amazing philanthropy is getting to meet the people affected: breast cancer survivors. This walk lets us mingle with the very women we do so much to help.
With October quickly coming to a close, North Texas ZTAs are proud of what we've accomplished, and what we will continue to accomplish for our philanthropy.
