"Greek Week" at Western Kentucky University doesn't officially begin until April 19th, but the games - and the fundraising - have already started!

Every year, WKU's Greek Week council chooses two philanthropies to support. This year, one of the charities happens to be Scottsville's Center for Courageous Kids.

The Center for Courageous Kids opened its 20 million dollar campus in Allen county 13 months ago. Since then, 25 hundred campers, many with fife threatening illnesses, have used the facility at no cost.

Fundraisers like this one help make that possible. The first ever WKU Greek Week Bowl-A-Thon had 26 teams from fraternities and sororities competing against each other, and raising money for a good cause.

And the Center is happy to have them! Every dollar has a big impact on the camp's day to day operations.

More than 200 children from Warren county have already camped at the Center and these college students want to do their part to reach as many more as possible.

Last night's Bowl-A-Thon raised more than $3,000 for Camp Courageous. Plans are already in the works for next year's event.
