Fundraising Gets a New Look
Author: Brother Servinsky
We have started a few new things with fundraising such as themed meetings, little Cesar's pizza kits, raffles, and a members auction. Instead of dressing down in your scrubs and ripped t-shirts, the chapter members participate in a theme and pay $3.00 towards their fundraising total. Our first themed meeting was "Rep Your Area"; members dressed in clothing that represented their home town. Participation in the themed meeting was wonderful and the members became acquainted with others from their area. The next themed meeting is 'Born in the 80s". PIZZA! PIZZA! Chapter members will be selling Little Cesar's Products from February 24 to March 16. They can sell pizza kits, cheese bread kits, pie making kits, pre-made salads, and tubs of cookie dough. Each item has a different price value that will contribute to each member's fundraising total. Of course Epsilon Omicron is still doing raffles. This semester we are raffling off tickets to a Detroit Tigers Baseball game. The tickets are a dollar each and proceeds go straight to their fundraising. Only one winner with receive the tickets. If you would like to donate or recommend items to be raffled off please contact Marissa Servinsky at 248.425.9134. Our new fundraising event is a members auction. I choose 8 volunteers to be auctioned off to all the chapter members. Originally the auction was scheduled around Valentines day and was rescheduled to April 6th. The volunteers will 'strut their stuff' in front of the room and have a short bio about themselves. The bio is anything from long walks on the beach to being a member of the computer club. The chapter members interested in these volunteers will compete with other members prices and win a date with the volunteer of their choice. The volunteer who is auctioned of for the highest price will receive prizes such as a gift certificate to Beaners coffee shop, Kalamazoo 10 movie theater, and to Cold Stone creamery. Since everyone waits till the end of the semester to pay their $100 fundraising for the fraternity, the auction will be a nice event at the end to tie things up.
