A Message From Alpha Phi As we reflect on another remarkable biennium for Alpha Phi, we’re grateful for the dedication and accomplishments of our sisterhood. This period has been marked by meaningful growth, with Alpha Phi reaching new heights in membership and engagement. Our strength lies in the breadth of our perspectives and experiences. During this past biennium, we welcomed more than 16,000 new members, bringing our total to 25,015 collegiate members and more than 224,261 members worldwide. These exceptional women bring fresh energy and ideas that continue to propel Alpha Phi forward, demonstrating our lasting impact well beyond the collegiate experience. This impact is strengthened by nearly 1,743 dedicated volunteers who generously support our collegiate and alumnae chapters. Their mentorship, guidance and continuity sustain Alpha Phi at every level of the organization. Alpha Phi continues to demonstrate exceptional fiscal strength and stability. Our commitment to prudent financial stewardship has enabled us to achieve a 18.5% net profit last fiscal year. The Lifetime Dues Investment Fund, sustained by the ongoing support of alumnae who choose to pay lifetime dues, remains robust and continues its steady growth trajectory, ensuring a sustainable financial foundation that will support our sisterhood for generations to come. Through disciplined financial management and careful oversight, we’ve positioned Alpha Phi to meet both current operational needs and future strategic initiatives while maintaining healthy reserves. Innovation remains a priority, as demonstrated by the continued success of 1872 Properties, which provides safe and competitive housing solutions tailored to the unique needs of each campus. This individualized approach has allowed 1872 Properties to grow and manage 61 facilities across North America. At the end of this fiscal year, 1872 Properties will have invested more than 10 million in renovations and upgrades in facilities across the country. Each facility is structured within its own limited liability company, ensuring that the revenue and expenses of each property are fully supported by that individual facility and its members. This model promotes transparency, accountability and long-term financial sustainability while protecting the strength of the broader organization. Looking ahead, we’re energized by the opportunities before us. Our strategic plan is centered on three key priorities: strengthening our membership, investing in our Fraternity and innovating for the future. With the continued dedication of our members and volunteers, we’re confident in Alpha Phi’s ability to achieve these ambitious goals. We extend our deepest appreciation to every member who has contributed to our success. Through service, support and living our ideals each day, you’re the heart of Alpha Phi. Together, we’re building a legacy of excellence that will inspire generations of women leaders to come.
Loyally,
