Well, we here at IK have'nt tried this, but i have seen it done at
Rutgers one homecoming. Now i think they involved the greek system by
involving the brothers of other fraternities to participate, the
organization who got the most votes, getting to donate the procedes to a
charity of their choice .. i think the overlying theme they all had in
this case was literacy.
and for how to put it on ..
well a) advertise and b) set up a booth in a well-frequented
location ..
