This fall, Zeta Tau Alpha at Presbyterian College is hosting their first annual Think Pink Color Run. Zeta Tau Alpha’s Philanthropy is Breast Cancer Awareness and Education.
Our goal for hosting this color run is to not only raise money and awareness for such an important cause, but to also bring our campus and the Clinton community together. All of the proceeds received from this color run will go to support the Zeta Tau Alpha Foundation including scholarships, educational programming, leadership development, and out fight against breast cancer, which includes our partnerships with Bright Pink, the NFL and the American Cancer Society. We plan to open check-in at 9 a.m. on Saturday, October 14, 2023. We will begin the run at the Fraternity Court at Presbyterian College and end the run there, as well. When purchasing a ticket, you will receive a color run t-shirt that may be worn throughout the race. If you, a relative, or a friend had been diagnosed with Breast Cancer, we would love to recognize you at our event. We plan to have lots of pink colored powder and loads of fun! We would love for you to join us in helping our chapter reach our goal in supporting this cause. Most importantly, we encourage everyone to THINK PINK.
