Our Crowdfunding Groups
Although this campaign has concluded, if you would still like to make a donation to support the Nu Chapter of Theta Tau, you may always do so here.
Theta Tau, a co-ed professional engineering fraternity, prides itself on three main pillars of service, professional development, and brotherhood. We are known for our service to our college, university, and the larger community. Our service projects create a unifying environment for learning and personal growth for our members. We develop and nurture engineers with strong communication, problem-solving, collaboration, and leadership skills that we demonstrate in our profession, our community, and in our lives. We forge lifelong bonds of fraternal fellowship, a journey that develops and delivers a network of lasting personal and professional relationships. We foster an inviting, safe, and social environment in which our members become lifelong friends.
Our chapter is very excited to host our regional conference this spring welcoming brothers from all over the great lakes region. We hope to facilitate professional development opportunities while networking with a diverse group and introducing visitors to our amazing community here in Pittsburgh. While we have many great events planned, we need your help to ensure we are able to maximize the weekend and represent the University of Pittsburgh and our chapter in the best possible light!
There are many ways you can help our chapter host the best conference possible. The first way is to donate! Every donation is tax deductible (you will receive a receipt) and 100% of the proceeds go directly to the Nu Delta chapter of Theta Tau. You can donate at one of the predetermined levels, or you can choose your own amount.
Another way you can help is by spreading the word about our campaign! Please send our link to all your friends and family, and share our posts on social media! We are so thankful for all of the support that we have received and we look forward to hosting a fantastic regional conference!
Our pillar chairs work hard to implement several events throughout each semester. Our service chair, Mike Cannizzaro, has been successful this semester in implementing our year-long service project of creating care packages for the military in honor of our brother Alex Jacques. Other events Mike has put on include a Tree of Life Synagogue bake sale, maintaining our strong relationship with the local First Food and Friends soup kitchen, and even adopting a local highway.
Our professional development chairs, Jon Klan and Carl Paasawe, implemented several new events this semester such as bringing in professionals from local companies, having professors from various departments come to talk, resume reviews with the co op office professionals, and even a scheduling event to help our younger members plan ahead. Additionally, they are holding an event where brothers showcase their own professional experiences through research, internship, study abroad, and co-op presentations. Our brotherhood chairs, Abby Daniels and Abigail Pinto, have had an extremely successful from planning events like paintballing, horseback riding, and cave exploring to our wonderful formal aboard the luxury cruise ship. These are just some highlights of the many events our chapter puts forward to support our own chapter, our engineering school, and our community!
