WHAT WE DO
GAME DAY SERVICE
Every football game, our members serve the band by carrying medicine kits, supplying water, and selling UT merchandise. The majority of the proceeds from this merchandise benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
EXTERNAL SERVICE
Our chapter also serves the greater Austin community. We participate in a variety of different service events, such as working with Mobile Loaves and Fishes and St. David's Medical Center. We also participate in "Adopt-a-Schools," where we join a local high school's band program at their football games.
PHILANTHROPY EFFORTS
The Beta Gamma Chapter of Tau Beta Sigma's philanthropy efforts benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation and Eastside Memorial High School in Austin, TX.
PROMOTE SISTERHOOD
The Beta Gamma Chapter of Tau Beta Sigma promotes equality and diversity, and empowers women in all that we do.
