My Iron Phi Story
Asa's Awesome Iron Phi Page
This year, I'll be attempting to become an Iron Phi - a distinction given to a small percentage of members within my Fraternity. The mission of Iron Phi is to strengthen my fraternity and the impact it has on the fight against Lou Gehrig's disease through the fundraising and athletic efforts of its members. Lou Gehrig was a member of Phi Delta Theta, and our organization has taken an active role in finding a cure.
The net proceeds will support ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease) research, education, screening and treatment. It will also help strengthen an organization (Phi Delta Theta) that has had a lasting impact on my life.
To become an Iron Phi, I will be climbing the Manitou Incline to compete for most steps climbed and steepest elevation gain. I hope that you'll share this incredible adventure with me - by supporting me in my fundraising efforts.
I've set my personal goal at 1000 Dollars, so I need your help. If you are wlilling to support my efforts in the fight against ALS, you can make a donation on this page by clicking on the "Make a Gift" link below the thermometer. You can also send a check made out to Iron Phi to me at asmo3458@colorado.edu if you'd rather donate that way.
The opportunities Phi Delta Theta has provided me are innumerable. It has given me a great group of friends, grown my leadership skills, and completely transformed my college experience for the better. Becoming an Iron Phi is just one of the ways I am beginning to give back to this great organization.
Thank you in advance for your generosity!
Sincerely,
Asa

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.”
