The Missouri Eta Chapter at Missouri Western State University hosted its inaugural 5K for ALS on April 9, raising over $2,000 for ALS with 57 participants. In addition to an excellent turn out, former chapter president Alex Atkinson completed the 5K to become Iron Phi #515. The event received great support from the community with many businesses donating to the cause. The chapter is very excited about the turnout and money raised in just the first year.

Missouri Eta is excited for the event’s future and the opportunity that it gives the chapter to benefit the organization that holds such meaning for every brother of Phi Delta Theta. The brothers of Missouri Eta hope that the event will continue to grow each year and further assist in the fight against ALS.
