For good
All proceeds go to the USO.
Every dollar the show brings in, from vendor table fees to the $1 admission, is donated to the USO. The brothers of Beta Nu are paying the costs of running the event themselves, so nothing is taken out first.
The USO supports U.S. service members and their families. It has been a national philanthropy partner of Theta Chi since 2013, and Theta Chi chapters have raised more than $1 million for it.

Beta Nu is the Theta Chi chapter at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland. Grails for Good is run by its brothers, and all proceeds go to the USO.
The chapter's roots go back to 1909, when it was founded as Sigma Tau Delta at the Case School of Applied Science. It became part of Theta Chi in 1942. Its alumni include computer scientist Donald Knuth, class of 1960.
Theta Chi was founded at Norwich University, the oldest private military college in the country, which is part of why the fraternity partners with the USO.
