For good

All proceeds go to the USO.

Every dollar the show brings in, from vendor table fees to the $1 admission, is donated to the USO. The brothers of Beta Nu are paying the costs of running the event themselves, so nothing is taken out first.

The USO supports U.S. service members and their families. It has been a national philanthropy partner of Theta Chi since 2013, and Theta Chi chapters have raised more than $1 million for it.
