Adrian College chapter of Theta Chi to raise funds for Hope Community Center

ADRIAN, Mich. – The Zeta Beta chapter of Theta Chi at Adrian College will host its first annual Walk For Hope event on Saturday, March 28 from 9 A.M. to 9 P.M. All proceeds will benefit the Hope Community Center, an organization which aids adults with disabilities to live a richer and fuller life.

Walk For Hope will be an event where participants will be sponsored for a 12-hour period of walking. It will take place at the Adrian College track and field facility. Teams will consist of 10 members each and will be asked to pay a $300 entry fee; additional participants will cost $10. The registration deadline is Friday, March 20, 2009.

The Hope Community Center has been giving adults with disabilities a place to socialize and enjoy themselves throughout Lenawee County since 1976. Today, there are approximately 400 members and more than 120 programs available monthly. The Zeta Beta chapter of Theta Chi has been working closely with the center over the past several years to help them fulfill their mission statement. Walk For Hope will be the first philanthropic event Theta Chi has sponsored to benefit the Hope Center.
