Date: Oct 23, 2016 at 5:30pm to 6:30pm
**Do not sign up for this event. Simply bring your donation and receipt during the collection to get credit.** An alumni from the Sara Offut pledge class has reached out to us looking for donations. VPs of Service have decided to award service hours and chapter credit to brothers/pledges that donate items from the acceptable item list below. Skip to the end to see the list and rules. Background: Rachel Coutant is a brother from the Sara Offut pledge class. She currently works for the Lucile Packard Children's Hospital. They are looking to collect 500-600 goodies to hand out to kids as they trick or treat arond the hospital. This event is important for the kids to feel normal. Most kids at this children's hospital suffer from serious illnesses and call Lucile Packard their home. If these kids can participate in Trick-or-Treating like every other kid out there, then they can feel a little bit more like a kid without a severe illness holding them back.
