Lambda-Eta Chapter - White Ribbon Campaign Event

A turkey dinner philanthropy to raise funds to stop violence against women will be from 1 to 4 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 15, at the Robert A. Lee Community Recreation Center, 220 S. Gilbert St. in Iowa City. The event is co-hosted by the Men's Anti-Violence Council at the University of Iowa Women's Resource and Action Center (WRAC) and the Tau Kappa Epsilon (TKE, Lambda-Eta Chapter) Fraternity on the UI campus. Proceeds will go to the Iowa City Domestic Violence Intervention Program ( DVIP ) and the White Ribbon Campaign.

DVIP has been providing safety, shelter and resources to survivors of domestic violence for over 27 years.

The White Ribbon Campaign is the largest men's anti-violence organization in the world. A man wearing the white ribbon is making a pledge to never commit, condone or remain silent about violence against women.

The Men's Anti-Violence Council (MAC) is an opportunity for men to get involved in preventing violence.

Tickets are $8 in advance and $10 at the door. Tickets are available at WRAC, 130 N. Madison St., or at 319-335-1486 or by contacting the fraternity.
