Greeks Go Bald!

No, this isn't a posting about your Greek Advisor's receding hairline. It's about a really cool philanthropic effort by students at Kennesaw State University in Georgia. I love its simplicity and its direct connection to the people it helps.

Lifted from their website:

Hundreds of students and volunteers associated with various Greek organizations at Kennesaw State University and across the southeast are coming together in solidarity with children stricken with cancer. Originally started and organized by Delta Tau Delta, Greeks Go Bald! has become an annual philanthropy event among the entire Greek community at Kennesaw. Over the next two months all volunteers and participants will raise money in an effort to reach this years event goal of $20,000 to donate to the St. Baldrick's Foundation.

Several members of local fraternities and other organizations have registered with their various teams and will begin raising money from now, until the event date. Then, on the day of the event, these brave men and women will shave their heads in solidarity with children affected by cancer.
