Grab some friends, bowl some strikes, and win prizes through our 50/50 raffle and silent auction to help raise money and awareness for RAINN in this year's Strike Out Abuse.
The Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network is the nation's largest anti-sexual violence organization and was named one of "America's 100 Best Charities" by Worth magazine. In addition to carrying out programs to prevent sexual violence, helping victims, and ensuring that rapists are brought to justice, RAINN created and operates the National Sexual Assault Hotline. Last year, over two hundred students across the Georgia Tech community took a stand against women's violence by raising money for RAINN through "Strike Out Abuse".
Co-hosted by Alpha Sigma Phi and Omega Phi Alpha along with partnerships with the Women's Resource Center, VOICE, and Tech Rec, "Strike Out Abuse!" offers many different ways for students to take a stand while having fun and winning cool prizes.
Activities/Prizes include:
Help take a stand against sexual violence and support a great cause with "Strike Out Abuse"!!! Entrance into the bowling tournament is $5/person or $20/team of four. Contact nonaka.jay@gmail.com to learn how to sign up!
