Over the past two years, Gamma Tau, in conjunction with its alumni association, has successfully raised over $100,000 for Swim With Mike, one of USC's largest fundraisers that supports scholarships for disabled Athletes. Every Spring, Beta Theta Pi hosts its own Philanthropy, Beta Beach. Nine sororities participate in three days of events that culminate with a water volleyball tournament at the chapter house. The philanthropy raises money for the Department of Public Safety Explorer Troop, a mentorship program for at-risk youth in South Central Los Angeles. In Spring 2011, the ladies of Kappa Alpha Theta won first place and helped Beta raise over $3,000 to pay for uniforms and supplies for the troop. Beta participates in all sorority philanthropy events, having won three such events in the last year. Victories include Pi Beta Phi's Pi Social, the always competitive Phi Ball Tournament hosted by the ladies of Alpha Phi, and the KAT at BAT wiffle ball tournament held by the ladies of Kappa Alpha Theta. These sorority philanthropies help raise funds for local and nationwide charities, causes which the Gamma Tau colony is proud to aid.

The young men of USC Beta have made a firm commitment to giving back to the Los Angeles community. We realize that we are fortunate to be where we are today. It is for this reason that we take great pride and joy in being able to help the less fortunate. USC Beta's main commitment is to the Swim With Mike organization that supports physically challenged athletes. Every year we organize exciting fundraisers that raise money for such organizations. We also frequently support local soup kitchens, schools and hospitals.
