For years, Kappa Delta sororities across the country have raised money for the prevention of child abuse as a major philanthropy project. On Saturday, February 27, 2010, the Beta Chi chapter hosted the 17th annual Shamrock 'n' Run 5K.

Last year our race raised over $44,000 for the prevention of child abuse and won the Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life's Chapter Excellence Award for Outstanding Philanthropic Activity in 2008. This year our race raised over $51,000 for the prevention of child abuse. Combined with the Go Green Shamrock Dinner, we raised over $54,000! Please explore this website to register for the race, make a donation, and find out how you can help fight child abuse.

Eighty percent of the funds raised through the Shamrock 'n' Run 5K are given to the Center for Child and Family Health in Durham, NC. The remaining twenty percent is given to the national Prevent Child Abuse America organization.

The Shamrock 'n' Run Race Course is USATF Certified, NC-04072-PH.
