Bozeman, MT – The Kappa Sigma Fraternity, Delta-Lambda Chapter at Montana State University raised over $11,000 from their 3rd annual Sushi For Soldiers event that they held on Nov. 9th, 2017.
The money was raised for the local philanthropy, Warriors & Quiet Waters. The event was a success due to the special help from Seven Sushi, The Rocking R Bar, Jersey Mikes, and twenty other local businesses. The event included fresh sushi rolls, raffle prizes, and T-Shirts. This total was the largest charitable contribution raised in the Chapter’s 91-year history at Montana State University!
The Kappa Sigma Fraternity has worked closely with Warriors & Quiet Waters for a few years and plans to continue. Warriors & Quiet Waters was chosen as their primary philanthropic organization “Because [Kappa Sigma] has a passion for fly fishing and we have many veterans of our own”.
Warriors & Quiet Waters is a philanthropic organization that helps post 9/11 combat veterans reintegrate into society by bringing veterans here for a week-long program of fly fishing and a restful time in our beautiful surroundings.  The trip includes instruction, gear, guided fishing trips, home cooked meals, and camaraderie.
