the campus community for “What is precious is permanent and
what is permeant is Kappa.”
The ladies of Beta Tau started off the 2017 academic year by making a splash with our annual Kappa Kar Wash!
With it being our first major philanthropy event of the year, the chapter was eager to make it the best yet.
Breaking Beta Tau records, the chapter successfully raised over $1,400 for Reading is Fundamental. From cars,
to Oishi Sushi Vans, and even dogs, our sisters worked until the very last minute raising more money than we
have ever seen raised at Beta Tau. A bake sale also occurred simultaneously, icing on the cake and more dough
for the cause! Additionally, the sisters took advantage of this philanthropic opportunity in light of their sisters
who have been personally affected by the category five hurricane that hit Puerto Rico, causing the island to lose
complete electrical power. Beta Tau set up a table where donations could be collected and sent directly to the
United for Puerto Rico fund. President Danielle Runfola and Philanthropy Chairman Gabriela Penzetta worked
incredibly hard to ensure the success of the event!
Over the past years, Beta Tau has been striving for higher participation in other Greek houses’ philanthropies.
The chapter was happy to achieve that goal and they were satisfied to say that they are a leading chapter in
contributing to other houses! The participation has been a breeze as the sisters have been eager to participate,
contribute, and get involved.
Beta Tau was so excited to bring back our traditional philanthropy Kappa Kappachino! The sisters
pushed through finals week and sold coffee in two different on campus buildings. Peet’s coffee
donated all of their coffee for free so Beta Tau was able to profit for the Kappa Foundation. Sister
Alanna Masciarelli on the public relations committee, created a shirt similar to a logo that were all
familiar with, Friends! The sisters also sold some yummy snack and cookies on the side to help the
campus wake up and energize for their finals! The sisters are so proud of their philanthropy chairman,
Gabriela Penzetta, for bringing this wonderful and successful event back to our chapter! The chapter is
looking forward to Kappa Kickball in the spring time!
