Get on the Ball

Rainbow Babies and Children's Hospital Logo

From August 28th to 30th, the Brothers of Zeta Beta Tau Fraternity at Case Western Reserve University are hosting the first annual “Get on the Ball” philanthropic campaign to benefit the Rainbow Babies and Children’s Hospital through Children’s Miracle Network. We hope that you would be willing to support this effort. This three-day event will consist of rolling a six foot ball around our campus collecting signatures on the ball from any individual willing to support Children’s Miracle Network. The person signing the ball will be encouraged to donate money but not required.

Zeta Beta Tau Fraternity nationally supports Children’s Miracle Network through many philanthropic efforts, and this particular event has been very successful for our fraternity on other campuses. Children’s Miracle Network is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping kids by raising funds for 172 children’s hospitals across North America. Rainbow Babies and Children’s Hospital is the closest affiliate of Children’s Miracle Network. The 172 CMN hospitals are there 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, to help kids of every age and background overcome disease and injury, including everything from asthma and broken bones to cancer, sickle cell anemia, pediatric AIDS, and muscular dystrophy. This year alone, CMN hospitals will provide free care worth billions to 17 million children, and these non-profit children’s hospitals depend on community support to help fund their vital services.

Please help us support this organization through this philanthropic effort. If you wish to help this cause, this form needs to be filled out and returned no later than August 20th. Our mailing address is on the home page of this website. Additionally, you can now donate online through Rainbow Babies and Children's Hospital website. Please designate your gift as "Other" and type in "Get on the Ball" to ensure your donation is accredited to this event. Thank you for your time, and remember your support of Children’s Miracle Network helps ensure that children have the specialized care they need and deserve.

If you have any questions on our philanthropic efforts, please contact our philanthropy chair, Russ Hardesty.

Trick or Treat

Every October, Zeta Beta Tau teams up with Phi Mu sorority to raise money for the Children's Miracle Network. The brothers and sisters of ZBT and Phi Mu "trick or treat" for donations in the Cleveland area to benefit the Children's Miracle Network during Halloween. This event has been very successful in past years. Last year, hundreds of dollars were raised for this cause.
