JMU's Panhellenic Council is sponsoring its annual Be Beautiful Campaign April 4-7.

Be Beautiful Campaign is a weeklong celebration of empowering women and promoting the most unique parts about ourselves that make us who we are. The Panhellenic Council strives to promote these things not only during this one week, but all throughout the year.

Multiple events are held throughout the Be Beautiful Campaign. Each event is sponsored by the Panhellenic Council and the Junior Panhellenic Council. The money raised from the events of the week will go towards First Step. This organization serves women of the Harrisonburg community effected by domestic violence. They are so excited to have the opportunity to team up with us for Be Beautiful Campaign this year. Please come out and support the Greek Community and First Step at all our events this week.

Events for the Week:

All Week: Commons Day

Stop by the commons all week where the Panhellenic community will have different activities every day! Each activity will consist of bringing out the beauty within yourself. It's a lot of fun you won't want to miss.

All Week: Penny Wars on the Row

Have any loose change lying around? Take it to the top of the row this week and drop it in your organization's container. The money collect goes towards benefitting the women of First Step.
