Members of Northwestern State University’s Theta Chi chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., collected relief supplies to aid flood victims in South Louisiana and delivered a truck load of the supplies – water, paper goods, cleaning supplies, towels and more – to the NSU Student Services Center. From there the supplies will be sent to south Louisiana with local recovery workers. The group also raised nearly $650 in funds to help purchase more supplies.
