ATLANTA -- Members of Oglethorpe University’s Alpha Nu chapter of the Delta Sigma Phi Fraternity announce their eighth annual fall philanthropy event, Seesaw for Cancer. A 72-hour seesaw-athon, this event raises money for the AFLAC Cancer Center at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta and will be held October 24 through 27 on Oglethorpe University’s Academic Quad (4484 Peachtree Rd NE).

Members of the fraternity will ride a homemade seesaw continuously for three days and three nights. The seesawers will stay busy by carving pumpkins, doing assignments on their laptops, watching television and hanging out with supporters.

“In an effort to stay local, we donate the proceeds to the Children’s Hospital of Atlanta. This decision was made in order to give the event a local impact and have a more specific group benefit from the donations,” said Oglethorpe sophomore and Delta Sigma Phi philanthropy chair Ryan Fulgham.

The fundraising goal for Seesaw for Cancer is $1,500. If you are interested in making a contribution, please contact Ryan Fulgham at r.fulgham@oglethorpe.edu.
