Who is involved
Sigma Nu fraternity and Alpha Chi Omega
Sigma Nu fraternity and Alpha Chi Omega sorority join forces annually to organize the vibrant and impactful philanthropy event known as Paint Wars. This exhilarating event brings together students from all walks of life to engage in a friendly yet competitive battle with paint. Each sorority and Fraternity compete against each other in multiple mini-games involving paint. These mini-games include slip-and-slide relay races, paint pong, and dodgeball. At the end of the mini-games, there is a giant Paint War where teams must try and keep their flag cleaner than everyone else's while people run around and throw paint at it.

Paint Wars is not just about fun but about making a meaningful difference in the community. By partnering with Greenhouse 17, an organization dedicated to supporting survivors of domestic violence, Paint Wars serves as a powerful platform to raise awareness and funds for the fight against this pervasive issue. Paint Wars transcends the traditional bounds of philanthropy events by offering a unique and memorable experience for all involved. As participants laugh, dance, and embrace the joyful chaos of the paint-filled battlefield, they are reminded of the importance of solidarity and support in combating domestic violence. Through their enthusiastic participation, students contribute to a worthy cause and foster a sense of unity and compassion within the campus community.

Beyond the splendor of the paint-streaked battleground, the true impact of Paint Wars lies in its ability to effect change and uplift the lives of those affected by domestic violence. With each brushstroke and every donation collected, Sigma Nu and Alpha Chi Omega demonstrate their unwavering commitment to supporting Greenhouse 17's crucial mission. Through their collaborative efforts, they empower survivors, raise awareness, and advocate for a world free from the shadows of domestic abuse. Paint Wars is a testament to the transformative power of community, creativity, and compassion in creating a brighter tomorrow for all.
