Fraternities and sororities are known throughout the Fargo-Moorhead community for the time and energy their members put into local service projects and fundraising campaigns. Last year, the NDSU Greek community collectively served over 5,500 hours of service and raised nearly $100,000 to benefit local, regional, and national non-profit organizations. The Children’s Miracle Network, Relay for Life-American Cancer Society, Juvenile Diabetes Association, Special Olympics of North Dakota, Nokomis Child Care Center, Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA), Adopt-A-Highway, Prevent Child Abuse America, Girl Scouts, Big Brother/Big Sister, and Ronald McDonald House are just a few of the non-profit organizations supported by NDSU fraternities and sororities.
Members participate individually and in groups with a number of local churches, nursing homes, food pantries, childcare centers, hospitals, animal clinics, schools, group homes, and homeless shelters that need assistance on an regular basis. The majority of fraternities and sororities have service hour requirements that members meet each semester. Many members go above and beyond the number of hours required and some obtain internships with the organizations they have served. Greek students value the experiences they have with these organizations and the people that are served.
Several of the fraternities and sororities have developed a number of annual events that occur to raise money and awareness for local and national non-profit organizations. The Teeter-AThon, 3-on-3 Basketball tournaments, Freeze-A-Thon, Mr. NDSU mock beauty pageant, Swing-A-Thon, Pedal for Pets, Bounce-A-Thon, Kicks for CASA, Miss NDSU mock beauty pageant, Trick-or-Treat for Spare Change, Spaghetti Feeds, and Bail & Jails take place annually to support these non-profit organizations.
