You can support your chapter’s scholarship and leadership efforts. Each chapter has a fund established with the Foundation for its specific use for scholarship or leadership purposes. The chapter and its Alumni and Volunteer Corporation can establish separate accounts as necessary, including a housing account to be used for educational space related to its Residential Learning Community, or to honor and/or memorialize a brother. Depending on the needs and goals, a chapter may have any number of funds.
The Sigma Phi Epsilon Educational Foundation wants SigEp chapters to build and maintain the resources needed to be successful in growing their chapter scholarship, leadership and housing funds. Below are template letters, a pledge agreement, and information about starting a chapter scholarship/fund which may be modified to fit your chapter’s needs.

These templates are only some of the resources available to your chapter. Remember, you have human resources as well. The Foundation staff is available to work with every chapter to establish the best possible fundraising program. The Foundation can provide expertise, additional documentation and connections with preferred service providers of professional fundraising services.
