The Alpha Rho Sigma chapter combined forces at the Buddy Walk, hosting our Scholar Dash to support two incredible causes. We walked to promote acceptance and inclusion for individuals with Down syndrome, as well as advancements with our Golden Opportunity Scholarships. This event allowed us to ...engage with community agencies, gather research for our Honors in Action project, and support our amazing advisor Kristy Levert and her son #Ollie's Army.

Thank you to our amazing donors and participants! Your support helped me reach my fundraising goal of $240, welcoming four new members to our extended PTK family. I'm beyond excited that collectively we were able to raise nearly $40k! You all rock!
