Greeks give fun back to the community

Story and video by Martina Nwoga
Richard Brantley, Programming Director of the King Kennedy Center, brought some of the children to Kent State to eat, play games, play games, win prizes and enjoy spending time with college students.
They attended Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc. and Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.'s Turkey Jam in Oscar Ritchie.
The Turkey Jam is an annual event that Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc. has hosted for the past three years. The King Kennedy Center has been participating in bringing its kids every year.
Ryan Brown, Jr. nursing major, said that his fraternity continues to host the event because they enjoy giving back to the community.
The Turkey Jam meant a lot to senior general technology major Tramaine Jackson.
“I never had anyone give back to me when I was a little kid,” Jackson said.
The event was full of laughter and enjoyment.
Nine-year-old Sidny White said she really liked playing the games and winning prizes.
15-year-old Naomi Bush also said she enjoyed herself and plans on coming back again next year.
The event was open to the public so other college students could participate in community service.
