The university partnered with Pickleball House to host "Pickle with a Purpose."

The event promotes the Delta Alpha Pi Honor Society, which recognizes high-achieving college students with disabilities.

Money raised from the event goes toward disability awareness programming at the university.

"By having this type of programming and this type of event, we can raise the funds to do more disability awareness programming on campus so that way students on campus can be aware of the barriers that these students face on a day-to-day basis," [First Name] Donaldson said.

Donaldson said the event is one of many campus programs they do to raise disability awareness.
