Dedicated fund as a way to establish a lasting resource

Clear the Path to the Future

A dedicated fund is more than a gift; it is a promise to the future. By establishing a lasting resource, you ensure that the path to graduation and leadership remains open for generations of fratres to come.

How Dedicated Funds Work

With a dedicated fund, the Foundation steps in as a careful steward of your legacy. This includes providing full administrative oversight by handling all tax receipts, auditing, and financial management so your support makes the greatest possible impact on our fratres.

Pathways for Impact

  • Program Fund

    Empower leadership and growth.

    Create a sustained program fund that fuels educational initiatives, health and safety training, or career development. You equip undergraduate fratres with the vital skills they need to lead with confidence.

  • Scholarship Fund

    Reward excellence and ambition.

    Create a lasting scholarship that rewards academic achievement or leadership. You define the criteria, helping deserving fratres reach their full potential.

  • Chapter Educational Fund

    Strengthen your home chapter.

    Provide a dedicated resource for your chapter’s educational needs, from study room upgrades to registration for leadership programs.

Ready to build your legacy?

Establishing a dedicated fund is a personal and visionary journey. Whether you wish to honor a loved one or invest in a specific area of fraternity life, our team is here to help you structure a gift that aligns with your values.

We offer three distinct pathways for your support:

  • Chapter Educational Funds ($2,500 minimum): Establishes an immediate-impact resource to support local chapter educational goals, technology upgrades, and leadership opportunities.

  • Named Program Funds ($25,000 minimum): Establishes a sustained resource to power national leadership initiatives, wellness programs, and educational infrastructure year after year.

  • Named Scholarship Funds ($50,000 minimum): Establishes a lasting source of tuition assistance, ensuring that financial aid is distributed annually to deserving fratres.

Flexible Funding Options
Meeting these minimums is entirely adaptable to your financial goals. Your commitment can be established as a multi-year pledge, allowing an individual or a group of alumni to reach the funding milestone together over time.

We primarily focus on two avenues for these commitments:

  • Individual Legacies: Created by a single donor to honor their lifelong commitment to Sigma Alpha Mu.

  • Commemorative Group Gifts: Established by alumni groups, pledge classes, or chapters to celebrate a significant milestone—such as an anniversary—or to honor the memory of a cherished fratre.
