Hannah Singleton, chapter president,
is a sophomore from South Pekin. She commented about the importance
of the fundraiser: "Iota Chi members have always been very generous
with volunteering their time to serve others. However; we have many
projects that require funding in addition to offering our time. We
hope this Trivia Night will help raise the funds needed to continue
forward with our planned contributions to Creekside, the Special
Olympics and Books for Veterans."
