PHI THETA KAPPA DONATES BOOKS TO KIDS

Alpha Eta Phi chapter of Phi Theta Kappa, a campus national honors fraternity, began donating storybooks to the HCC Child Care Center in 1998. This has become an annual tradition during the Christmas season.

The leader of the committee this year was HCC student and Phi Theta Kappa member Tammi Pope. Together with advisor, Katherine Sandlin and members, Ruth Gee, Zena Gibbs, and prospective member, Loretta Harrell, more than 100 books were delivered to the Child Care Center. Chapter members provided cupcakes and punch for the children while they shared the books and read stories to them.
