HPU Students Support American Heart Association
The HPU chapter of Sigma Nu raised $15,000 for the American Heart Association and presented the gift to Sonja Berghela, heart challenge director of the nonprofit, on March 13 at the fraternity’s house.
Sigma Nu has raised more than $70,000 for the American Heart Association’s local research since 2018, said chapter President Alex Stephens, a junior business administration major with minors in finance and sales from Charleston, South Carolina.
“We chose to support the American Heart Association after one of our brother’s family members suddenly passed away due to heart disease, which is one of the fastest-growing diseases globally,” said Stephens. “The Nu Delta Chapter continues its support for the American Heart Association to further support local research and the fight against heart disease.”
