Philanthropy | Pi Beta Phi works to enrich our community through philanthropic endeavors such as an ice cream bar coined "Pi Phi Sugar Rush" in the fall and a Pasta Dinner in the spring. These events raise funds for Pi Phi's national philanthropy Read.Lead.Achieve, which benefits literacy initiatives around the nation. Pi Phis also participate in a Pen-Pal and weekly reading program with elementary students at an Ames elementary. |
