The 3rd annual Pike Presents philanthropy was held earlier this December. Pike raised money and purchased Christmas presents for around 400 children at a local underprivileged elementary school. The event was a huge success with help from many different sororities. It was very rewarding to see the excited looks on all the children's faces, some of whom will not be receiving any other gifts this holiday season. Thank you to all the parents and individuals who donated money for this event.
