Annual Alpha Sigma 5K to Benefit St. Jude
On Sunday, April 23, 2017, the University of Illinois College of Pharmacy Alpha Sigma chapter of Phi Delta Chi hosted its 5th annual 5K Walk/Run benefiting St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Walkers and runners joined together to participate in this family friendly event along the lakefront trail at Montrose Harbor. Over 100 runners registered for the race and the entire chapter participated in the event. Out of 100 collegiate chapters across the nation, Alpha Sigma having raised over $17,000, is currently in the national lead for St Jude fundraising for the 2016-2017 school year. This shows that the Brothers of Phi Delta Chi are dedicated to helping save lives beyond the UIC community. We strive to make a difference in patient care nationally, while representing the UIC college of pharmacy.
