(increase from previous bet in parentheses)

Current donated value per chip = $253.76!

Thanks to the generosity of the above brothers, and more to come, this fundraising challenge will truly have an impact on Delta Chi as an organization and as a brotherhood.

Do you want to be a part of the "Big Bet?"

If you are willing to step up and join these brothers to challenge our 2006 Convention attendees to also come to Las Vegas while also helping raise funds for two deserving causes, please contact the Convention Coordinator. You can set any amount of donation per chip from 50 cents to $50 or more!

You can figure your maximum possible donation pretty easily, but it is realistically expected between 150-200 chips will be cashed in. If you prefer, you can cap your donation at a set amount as well.
