Kappa Phi has held a sing-a-thon prior to Christmas for nearly 40 years, and this year the money raised will go to the American Society for Suicide Prevention.

Greek organizations, chapel groups, solos, and duets began singing on Friday evening  in McIntosh Center. The sing-a-thon continued until 3 p.m. on Saturday, except for time out for breakfast. In all, 25 groups participated. 

Emily Fergus of Bellefontaine served as event chair this year. Kappa Phi is a Christian women’s sorority.
