Red Heart Gala
We hold two main events each year in support of these two organizations. The first is Red Heart Gala. Held during family weekend, all of our sisters dress in red formalwear for the event. Family and friends are invited into the house for a brunch and auction. The gala is a wonderful opportunity to raise tens of thousands of dollars for women’s heart health, while also getting to share our beautiful house with family members.
Hearththrob
Our second event is Heartthrob, which takes place in the spring. Heartthrob is a pageant-style show where representatives from MIT fraternities, sports teams, and other organizations from all across campus compete against each other for the title. With talent, modeling, and Q&A portions, our contestants perform in front of over 300 audience members. In spring 2022, we had 10 contestants from 8 different organizations (including our first female contestant!), with Sigma Chi’s Mr. Ben Sheres crowned Mr. Heartthrob.
