Fraternity Day of Service Signature Events: Moments of Impact
On Saturday, February 29, Pi Phi volunteers joined together in five different cities to bring 100,000 new books to their communities. Thank you to every Pi Phi and friend of Pi Phi who volunteered to serve their community and support children's literacy! And, a special thank you to the local schools, hospitals and other recipient groups who are working to promote children's literacy. We've gathered a few of our favorite "moments of impact" below.

With a donation from @PiBetaPhiHQ at @FromTheHilltop in partnership with @FirstBook, we can provide the tools (400 books) to pediatric healthcare providers so that they can create a Brain-Building partnership with the parents and families they serve every day. #ReadLeadAchieve pic.twitter.com/guLDPfqlvU
