The fraternity has volunteered at several CUSR events including the sensory egg hunt and afterschool program. As part of their philanthropy, they successfully raised $1000 for CUSR. Funds will be utilized to enhance the Summer Bash program taking place on June 2nd from 2-5pm at the Hessel Park Pavilion. The Summer Bash is a registered, all ages special event featuring food and games, as well as a kickball tournament, to celebrate summer with Champaign-Urbana Special Recreation.

Champaign-Urbana Special Recreation (CUSR) was formed through a cooperative agreement with the Champaign and Urbana Park Districts to provide recreation programs and leisure services for residents with disabilities. Inclusion and specialized programs are available.
