On Sunday, September 13, 2015 our Brothers of Beta Beta Chapter (Manhattan College) raised money and awareness for the "Love Holds Life" organization. Love Holds Life is a childrens' cancer foundation which helps the families of children with cancer pay for the medical expenses that their insurance does not cover. This non-profit organization benefitted greatly from the good work of our Beta Beta brothers.
The event was held in the Little Italy section of the Bronx within the context of "Ferragosta" -- a festival sponsored by the Belmont Improvement District which works to revitalize Little Italy.
(On an Italian tradition, "Ferragosta" is a time festival time in Italy and San Marino that occurs starting on August 15, the Feast of the Assumption of Mary -- so our Beta Beta brothers helped charity AND Italian Culture all in one day). Faciamus!
