In June 2011 Beta Phi, under the guidance of their Advisor David Serafini, organized relief trips to Joplin, MO site of a terrible tornado that brought major destruction to the town. During the June trip seven Brothers traveled on the first trip. The second trip happened over the fall break in 2011 when Serafini and thirteen Brothers returned. The continuing project has generated several news articles and media coverage of the Chapters work to support Joplin.
