Zeta Tau Alpha is celebrating its 36th Annual Franklin 5k! This event raises money for the ZTA Foundation whose efforts support educational programming, scholarships, leadership development, and breast cancer education and awareness. Additionally, the Theta Tau Chapter donates to local organizations: the Arc of the Triangle, the UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center, and Ashton's Angels. Please consider making a donation towards our philanthropy: Breast Cancer Education and Awareness, which is a cause that our Theta Tau chapter holds close to our hearts!
