Alpha Beautillion
Entering its 14th year, the Beta Tau Lambda Alpha Beautillion recognizes the accomplishments of outstanding young men in the Tarrant County Community in a black tie rites of passage event. Championed by the Beta Tau Lambda Charitable Foundation, tens of thousands of dollars have been awarded to graduating high school seniors in furtherance of their continued education. The Beta Tau Lambda Alpha Beautillion serves as a capstone to the chapter’s Alpha Academy mentorship program.
Fore the Jewels
Established in 2017, the Fore the Jewels Golf Tournament is the largest fund raising mechanism for the Beta Tau Lambda Charitable Foundation. Dollars raised by this event have helped to support scholarship and programming efforts for Alpha Academy and the Alpha Beautillion event. This event is well attended by the Tarrant County Greek Community, and in 2017 welcomed Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. General President Ward. Held at Top Golf, this non-traditional golf tournament combines food, music and entertainment in a relaxed environment.
