In February 2013, Brady Lucas spent nine hours a day in a protective bubble in a Pennsylvania hospital fighting respiratory syncytial virus (Rsv). The respiratory illness became severe from his compromised immune system, which was related to a 2011 bone marrow transplant Brady had to cure his cancer. During those long days, Brady would frequently receive texts and Snapchats from fraternity brothers at Phi Kappa Sigma at Penn State. "You good?" "You need anything?" they would ask, day after day. The brothers had "adopted" the then 16-year-old, and those texts and their visits meant as much to him as the lifesaving treatments he was receiving.

Program for at-risk youth. This event will cater to entertainment industry professionals and was previously set to take place at another well-known Hollywood Venue. When co-owner Christina Williams was asked why she decided to make the change she said, “It was a no-brainer. Owner Nadia Fakih was so kind and supportive and so willing to help for the cause.
