Blood, Sweat, and Cash
Delta Sigma Phi - Epsilon Tau
You can donate to an individual brother through the links provided below. Underneath each brother is a statement as to why they are taking on the Red Cross River Dash.
"The American Red Cross is an amazing organization, it supplies blood for the entire country and provides disaster relief for those who need it. If you have a serious problem, the Red Cross is an organization that you count on to be there. I believe strongly that we need to do our best to make all of that possible, and this is our way as a fraternity for doing that. Our arms might want to fall off by the end of it, but if the money that we raise can help save somebody's life then it's all worth it."
"The American Red Cross has helped save numerous amounts of lives each and every year. Giving up four days to canoe 120 miles down the AuSable River with brothers is a great way to give back and bond as a fraternity. "
"We are working to raise money for the American Red Cross so that we can be a part of something that is bigger than ourselves. The money we raise can be used to help save numerous lives and also give hope to many in the process. We cannot change the world, but as a group we are doing our best to make an impact on it."
"The American Red Cross saves thousands of lives each year and I am proud to be donating a few days of my time to canoe with some of the brothers to test our physical and mental strength to raise money for such a strong, positive, and influential organization."
"The American Red Cross saves countless lives every year. Donating one weekend of my time with brothers to give back to a cause like theirs is priceless."
"We are working toward something bigger than ourselves here. We have the opportunity to raise money making the world a better place by saving lives and providing relief through the American Red Cross. I am working for all those who don't think they can get help and relief. Help is on the way."
"My fellow brothers working just as hard for as long as I am. We are working as ONE unit trying to accomplish the same goal. The mental toughness that it is going to take."
"The greatest gift you can give someone is your time. Because when you give your time, you are giving a portion of your life that you will never get back. This is why I am canoeing for the American Red Cross. I will gladly sacrifice my time to benefit an organization such as this that spends its time helping people in a time of need."
"To be able to say we as a chapter, completed a 100+ mile canoe trip for the American Red Cross would be a tremendous accomplishment.The American Red Cross has likely directly or indirectly impacted all of our lives at some point, and this is an incredible way to show our support and give back. It will be a long, hard journey, but something that will make those who complete it mentally and physically stronger."
"I am taking on the Red Cross River Dash because I feel it is important to give back to the community as well as to an organization that gives so much to everyone else. The American Red Cross is an amazing organization that provides compassionate care to those in need by offering disaster relief, lifesaving blood, health and safety services, international relief and services, and the support of our American troops. Our fraternity is working as one cohesive unit to raise money and donate our time and efforts for such a great cause for those who may be losing hope. Well I am here to say that there is always hope and to be able to contribute to that hope is worth the pain and sweat that will go into this amazing journey!"
"The American Red Cross is one of the best national organizations at ensuring that all donations are directly transferred to helping those in need. As someone who wants to be a first responder, I understand the importance of having an organization like the Red Cross at the front lines during crisis situations. Completing this journey with my brothers will exemplify what this chapter truly stands for."
"The American Red Cross does countless things in the community not just blood drives. I believe it's time to give back to a great organization that does so much for people in need. I'm ready to set up to a event that is bigger than myself and my organization to help give back to a great cause and help those in need."
"As one of the newest members of Delta Sigma Phi-Epsilon Tau Chapter, I feel incredibly blessed to be part of such an amazing event. The American Red Cross is such an extraordinary organization, and I am proud to work alongside them, as well as my brothers!"
"To be able to sacrifice a few days of my time to better other's lives through our support for the American Red Cross is a great opportunity. I was very excited upon hearing we would be doing this event to help out their organization. The American Red Cross does so much for people who are in need and are suffering, so now its my time to do my part in helping others as well."
"I am participating in the Red Cross river dash to help give back to an organization that has given to so many families. Whether it be something as small and needed as blood, or help when disaster hits, the Red Cross has been there. This event has given me the opportunity to help give back, and help make a difference. That's what it's all about. Life should be about giving more than receiving."
"The Red Cross River Dash is a great way for me to give back. It will push me both physically and mentally as there will no doubt be times when I want to give up. Being able to support the Red Cross as well as further myself is a dream come true."
