WABI (Channel 5) reported live from the University of Maine Beta Theta Pi fraternity’s 23rd annual Sleep Out that was held as a fundraiser for Rape Response Services of Bangor. Members of the fraternity stayed outside overnight to raise awareness and funds for sexual assault services. Over the last four years, the Beta brothers have raised more than $30,000 for the nonprofit, according to the report. “We’re all about trying to make the world a better place, and our purpose that we see in this fraternity is to help support sexual assault awareness,” said UMaine student and Beta brother Holden Parker.
