PHILANTHROPY

THE RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE DURHAM

The Zeta Beta Chapter of Alpha Delta Pi is very lucky to have the opportunity to volunteer with the Ronald McDonald House of Durham. We visit the house and are able to provide dinner to the families and/or put on a craft night for the children. This hands-on opportunity to volunteer with our philanthropy has fostered a deep connection with the families of the Ronald McDonald House and our sisters.  The chapter also has two yearly fundraisers to raise money for our philanthropy. Our annual Ram Roast  and March McMadness serve as our chapter’s main fundraising efforts for Ronald McDonald House. 

OUR PHILANTHROPIC EVENTS

Each year our sisters look forward to two big events to support the Ronald McDonald House in Durham. In the Fall, it is Ram Roast and in the spring it is the Run for Ronald 5k on campus. Ram Roast is a fun way to celebrate the football game against UNC while eating barbecue with family and friends. Our in house chef and some of the girls cook and serve food, there is a live band and games to play. This year at ram roast some of our entrepreneurial sisters set up pop up shops of products they created as well! The Run for Ronald 5k is an event on campus where we encourage alumnae, students, friends, and family, to come out and run with us to support RMH!

FALL: RAM ROAST

We do this to not only bring the sister together but families and non greek ncsu students to raise awareness about RMH but also donate all of our earnings. We also collect pop tabs at ram roast and have a donation box, last year we raised 10,000 from pop tab collection.
This year is our 9th Ram Roast!

We typically raise between $9-11k!

There are multiple ways for each member to get involved with RMH, whether it is collecting pop tabs, going to the house and cooking dinner, cleaning the house, playing games, or making crafts with the kids and families. We also held an event this year with the current members and alumnae to come together at the house and creating over 70 Halloween goodie bags for the family. In the Fall, the Zeta Beta chapter participates in Trunk-or-Treat! This event involves decorating a car and having the kids trick-or-treat from car to car. It is so much fun! We love having a Ronald McDonald House so close and feel very lucky to be able to visit regularly.
