A MILLION DOLLAR GIVING DAY Inte ater a Givn ueda Chaege
PIKE Foundation Takes Home Awards The Foundation for Fraternal Excellence Awards of Distinction provide the fraternal foundation community an annual opportu- nity to recognize organizations excelling and innovating in a particular area. The Pi Kappa Alpha Foundation was recog- nized in — not one — but two areas, for the second year in a row! This year winning both Best Stewardship Effort and Best New Development Idea. BEST STEWARDSHIP EFFORT PIKE Foundation was recognized as having the most effective stewardship efforts through our President’s Council program which involves personalized connections, insider communi- cations with pertinent updates, and exclusive premium items. Our goal is to ensure a mean- ingful engagement with each of our highly valued President’s Council members while acknowl- edging their vital support and commitment to the Founda- tions’ mission and values. BEST NEW DEVELOPMENT IDEA Pi Kappa Alpha Foundation alongside Sigma Alpha Epsilon Foundation and Sigma Chi Foun- dation were recognized for The Interfraternal Giving Tuesday Challenge. The organizations enjoyed a fun, friendly competi- tion between fraternity founda- tions to see which organization can raise the most money for its unrestricted annual fund on Giving Tuesday.
