Wondering how we give back to the community? Take a look at our past events!
This is a new annual event on campus brought in by our brothers. For this event, the fraternity organizes a night on campus where the community is invited to send out letters on behalf of the Hospital to family and friends asking for their support. After submitting letters, there is festival style celebration on the campus quad. If you would like to learn more about our annual event, please visit our Up 'Til Dawn website.
Every year the mayor of Worcester asks the college students to donate their time on a Saturday and help clean up areas of Worcester . Epsilon has volunteered for the past seven years.
For an entire week prior to the event, Epsilon brothers table sat for a total of three hours apiece to raise money with the assistance of Phi Sigma Sigma sorority for child patients stricken with leukemia and lymphoma. Hosted on September 26, 2004, at Assumption College the entire brotherhood walked two miles and donated the money collected.
After the fire at the Epsilon residence, brothers seeking a place to reside thought of a radical idea. The epsilon brotherhood spent three days camping on the campus quad (a grassy field in the center of the university). While sleeping in pitched tents, it was decided to raise money for the Worcester Fire Department as a means of saying .thank you' to the fire fighters who assisted in putting out the fire of Epsilon Chapter House.
The brotherhood spent a Sunday helping volunteer their time to setup camp tents and cots for the Girl Scout Camp. The staff was very appreciative of the assistance.
Epsilon brotherhood constructed a series of clotheslines across the quad campus and for two days spent collecting used clothes and items to hang across the clotheslines. Prior to the event, brothers spent a week at a booth advertising the upcoming event. Conducting the event near the end of the academic school year ameliorated the number of clothing collected. After the two days, the clothes were collected and donated to the local Salvation Army.
On a Saturday and Monday evening, the brotherhood volunteered their time to help a local soup kitchen. Tasks included: spending time with the people there, serving food, shoveling walkways, cleaning and several other various tasks.
