Briefly Describe Your Chapter's Philanthropy Event : Chi Phi's National Charity is the Boys & Girls Clubs of America, which we here at the Nu Chapter have helped support. Chi Phi has helped the Austin Heart House for Kids by designing and constructing haunted houses for their north and south locations where we give the children a Halloween that they will never forget. In the Spring, we hold a Spring Field day where we provide egg hunts, sack races, egg relays and other outdoor games for Heart House South. Chi Phi's Nu Chapter also fielded a number of dancers for Dance Marathon, a UT-wide effort to raise money for the Dell Children's Hospital.

Briefly Describe Your Fraternity : Chi Phi was founded nationally at Princeton
University in 1824, making it the oldest social fraternity in the United States. A Chi Phi gentlemen is distinguishable by his truthfulness, his honesty, and his personal integrity. To a Chi Phi, a man's word is his bond, and all of the Nu Chapter men hold the ideal dear.
