Sisters for Soliders with Beta Upsilon

Sisters for Soliders

Beta Upsilon at Bryant University is doing their second annual Survival of the Fittest competition Oct 3-5. Teams will compete over several days in challenges as diverse as walking in heels to an obstacle course!

Survival of the Fittest is part of Beta Upsilon’s Sisters for Soldiers initiative, and they are asking for donations, either goods or monetary, to assist them in sending care packages to our men and women in the armed forces.

To donate, you can bring any of the following items to Beta Upsilon before Oct 2 or to an AOII Boston Alumane event before Sept 28, or fill out the following form to donate individually.
