On April 16, 2011 Phi Sigma Rho participated in the 2nd Annual Out of the Darkness Walk. The Out of the Darkness walk is an effort to raise awareness of the sensitive, albeit important issue of suicide. The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) uses proceeds raised from the campus walk for research on suicide prevention, assistance to those coping with suicidal issues and those impacted by it. The reasons for participation vary from those who walked in tribute of a loved one, those who have overcome, and those who support the cause but all strive to make suicide prevention a priority.
Our team raised $154.00 for the walk, which was $4.00 over our $150.00 goal. 13 of our sisters registered for the walk.
