On Tuesday, Phi Delta Theta fraternity will be hosting their first inaugural Fly With a Phi fundraiser benefiting Knight-thon and the Children’s Miracle Network.
The event will be held outside of the Student Union from 10am-2pm, and for every dollar donated you can write a message on a balloon and tie it to the brother dressed in the astronaut suit.
The astronaut suit pays homage to the late Neil Armstrong, who was a brother of the Phi Delta Theta fraternity.
Mike Irene, who is helping organize the event hopes that with enough support Phi Delta Theta can lift a brother off of the ground.
“With your help we can raise enough donations to actually lift our brother off the ground causing our standards, expectations, and brother fly.” Irene said in an e-mail to KnightNews.com.
Knight-thon, UCF’s official student-run philanthropy, will be held April 13th.
