Our Philanthropy

Phi Delta Theta is committed to making a difference in our community through service and philanthropy, with a special focus on the fight against ALS.

LiveLikeLou Foundation

Phi Delta Theta's national philanthropy honors Brother Lou Gehrig (Columbia University), who died of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) in 1941. The LiveLikeLou Foundation was established to support ALS research and families affected by this devastating disease.

Our chapter actively supports this cause through various fundraising events and awareness campaigns throughout the academic year.
