Endowment funds create a lasting legacy that supports the future success of Delta Sigma Phi’s educational and leadership initiatives. These donor-directed funds are dedicated to academic scholarships or leadership development programs, ensuring that our brothers receive the resources they need to thrive.
An endowment gift to Delta Sigma Phi is a commitment that grows over time, as only the earnings are used to support educational and leadership initiatives, while the principal remains intact. This ensures that your generosity provides enduring support, creating a legacy that empowers Delta Sigma Phi members far into the future.
Our National Leadership Fund, for example, fuels grants for educational programs, such as LEAD Weekend, Leadership Institute, and Convention, empowering Delta Sigma Phi brothers to build essential skills for their futures.
