Sigma Pledge Brother Spends Spring Break with Habitat for Humanity

 

So, where did YOU spend your spring break when you were in college?  Florida?  Mexico?  Texas?

 

For Matt Miely '16, a current pledge at Sigma Chapter of Phi Gamma Delta at Wittenberg University, he opted for a road less traveled.   "I actually don't think I'm going to make it home over spring break. I will be in North Carolina building houses with Habitat for Humanity. So it should be a bit of a working spring break, but it should be worthwhile and rewarding!"

Matt is to the right, in the weird hat.

Matt is a Fiji legacy, the son of Mark Miely (Sigma '79), from Upper Arlington outside of Columbus.  I checked in with him last week, while he was on site in North Carolina, and asked if he'd built some homes yet.  "We're definitely making progress on the one we're working on.  And it's definitely a rewarding experience.  More than worth my spring break anywhere else could be."

Matt, still in the hat, working for Habitat for Humanity in North Carolina.

He's now safely back on campus.  "Yeah, back to classes." 

Good for him.  Good for Wittenberg.  Good for Sigma Chapter of Phi Gamma Delta.  But, best of all, good for the family for whom he just provided needed housing.

Thank you, Matt.  You make us all proud...

Fraternally,
