As the leaves fall and the cold weather approaches, your list of chores may seem never-ending. The brothers of ATO hope you put down the rake and Rent-a-Tau for all your late fall/early winter cleaning needs.
The 43 ATO brothers can help you with various services:
· Landscaping
· Moving
· House cleaning
· Painting
· Assorted handyman tasks
“This is a fundraiser we started last year in which we benefit the community by providing services while at the same time benefiting a local charity,” explains fraternity Public Relations Officer Shane Fagan ’15. All proceeds will go to Abby’s House, a local foundation in Worcester that provides affordable housing specifically designed to meet the needs of women and children.
“Last year we donated all our money raised ($1,140) to Why Me and Sherry’s House, a local charity in Worcester that supports families with childhood cancer,” shares Fagan.
“I participated in a full day of Rent-a-Tau for ATO alumnus Matt Gaffney,” says Sam Russell, ’15. Four ATO brothers were rented to help move and spread mulch as well as rake and clean a backyard. “I had a very good experience knowing that the help I was providing was benefitting a charity, at the same time representing ATO and WPI in a great manner.”
Sign up by emailing Rent-a-Tau@wpi.edu with your name, address, phone number, time of availability, number of brothers needed (2 or 4), hours required, and service(s) requested.
