Fundraising
Chapter events through the year raise money for the V Foundation, with friends, families and other houses invited.
Philanthropy
Giving back, together.
Service is part of what it means to be a Delta Chi. We raise money for cancer research and give our time close to home.
Our cause
The V Foundation for Cancer Research
The V Foundation was created in 1993 by ESPN and the late college basketball coach Jim Valvano to raise money for cancer research. Delta Chi has been a proud partner of the foundation since 2006.
Almost everyone knows someone affected by cancer. Chapters across the country, including ours, hold events each year to support the foundation's work.
"Don't give up. Don't ever give up."
Jim Valvano's words from 1993 are the spirit behind the foundation, and behind why we fundraise.
How we help
Three ways we serve
Community service
Members volunteer their time with local organisations in Lawrence and on campus.
Supporting others
We turn out for other chapters' and campus groups' philanthropy events, because good causes are shared.
Philanthropy events
Get involved
Everyone is welcome at our philanthropy events. Come along, bring friends, and help us raise more.
