My Iron Phi Story
Welcome to Alex's Iron Phi Page
UPDATE: Thank you all so much. I seriously mean it.
Hi,
My name is Alex, and I am a brother of the Pennsylvania Rho chapter of Phi Delta Theta at Carnegie Mellon University.
This year, I'll be attempting to become an Iron Phi - a distinction given to less than 1% of all Phi Delta Theta brothers in the world.
The goal is to raise $1000 for The ALS Association and to complete some atheltic achievement, which I have chosen to be juggling a soccer ball 30,000 times in one day (roughly the same amount of people who have ALS at any given time).
ALS is a deadly disease that tramautizes everyone affected by it. Helping those around me has always been my focus, and I couldn't think of a better way than to help fund awareness, treatment, and research on such a daunting, debiliating, and increasingly prevalent disease.
I hope that you'll share this incredible adventure with me, and I thank you in advance for your generosity!
With gratitude,
Alex Sahinidis

How Does My Donation Make a Difference?
Your donation towards an Iron Phi athlete equally supports two very important things: Supporting ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease) through research and support of ALS families and leadership development for undergraduate members of Phi Delta Theta Fraternity.
At the end of each year calendar year, the LiveLikeLou Foundation grants dollars raised through Iron Phi to fund its initiatives that support ALS research, scholarships to support the higher education goals of ALS dependents, and summer camp experiences for children who have a parent or grandparent with ALS.
Dollars used for undergraduate leadership development have and continue to help Phi Delta Theta educate more of its undergraduate members as they work to “Become the Greatest Version of Themselves.”
