Pi Beta Phi's fall philanthropy "Angels In The Outfield" took place this past week with immense support from 13 organizations at Virginia Tech for events, including the first ever wiffle ball tournament!
All benefits from Angels In The Outfield go towards raising literacy awareness in the New River Valley. Angels In The Outfield participants were encouraged to check in and take money by the donation booth in Squires and high five Pi Phi sisters on campus for points throughout the week!
The philanthropy week also included special events including a food night downtown at Moe's Southwest Grill, and everyone's favorite "Pie A Pi Phi" outside of TOTs, where anyone could pay $1 to pie a Pi Phi sister in the face with a plate of whipped cream.

On Saturday for the White Out game, the sisters of Pi Beta Phi hosted a tailgate for literacy, where they partnered with
Frank Beamer to collect children's books for First Book and Hermas Readers. Angels In The Outfield came to a close on Sunday with a double-elimination
wiffle ball tournament between all the participating organizations, and a Pi Phi favorite, speed read!
Angels In The Outfield was a great success; Pi Beta Phi was able to raise $2000 for literacy! Thank you to all those who participated in Angels In The Outfield, and to those who just pied us in the face to support literacy!
