On Thursday evening, hundreds of Greek and non-Greek students across UCF flooded into the Tri-Delt chapter house to enjoy all-you-can-eat pancakes, bacon and hashbrowns–all for a good cause.

The Delta Delta Delta sorority at UCF raised roughly $16,000 dollars with their annual DHOP event, standing for “Delta House of Pancakes”. According to their Philanthropy Chair Shelby Miller, the sorority has raised over $60,000 as a chapter for the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital over the past year.

As a national chapter, Tri Delta pledged to raised $15 million for St. Jude in five years, a goal they achieved in three and a half years.

The event was not just students eating pancakes and bacon to their heart’s content. DHOP also had DJ Chizzle spinning music, along with a pancake eating contest and raffles to win concert tickets and theme park passes.
