Phi Delta Theta

Official philantrophy

For many years, Phi Delta Theta had no official philanthropy. However, the organization was long associated with the Amytrophic Lateral Sclerosis Association (ALSA) because of Lou Gehrig, an alumnus, who died of the disease. Amytrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a deabilitating neuro-muscular disease and has since become known as Lou Gehrig's disease. Though there had always existed a relationship between ALSA and Phi Delta Theta, it wasn't until November of 2002 when the General Council made the partnership official. Undergraduate as well as alumni chapters from all across North America regularly organize various events raising money for research.
