Delta Phi and Pi Beta Phi are excited to team up for this annual event! Shave a Brother to Save a Brother is a fundraiser deeply valued by the brothers of Delta Phi as it honors Kevin Ballantine, a brother we lost to Leukemia several years ago. Originally a member of the Cornell Class of 2010, Kevin was a young man who touched and inspired more people in his 23 years than any of us could hope for in our lifetimes. Kevin lived his life for others and always emphasized compassion, selflessness, and empathy. "Be the change you wish to see in this world" was Kevin's motto, and his words motivate us every day to be more like him. Because of how much he meant to Delta Phi and the Cornell community, we hold this philanthropy event in his honor and memory. On Wednesday April 20th, 2016, we will be on Ho Plaza shaving our heads to express our support for Kevin and our commitment to carrying on his legacy.
