Matching Grants for Local Scholarships

The Foundation will match local scholastic achievement awards given by chapters, colonies or alumni clubs, dollar for dollar. More information and applications are available here.
Chapter Educational Funds
Chapter Educational Funds (CEFs) are established by alumni for the benefit of a specific chapter. These funds further the charitable, educational, and other tax-exempt purposes of the Foundation by promoting leadership, providing educational facilities and equipment, and implementing scholarship programs for the benefit of members of the designated chapter.
To Develop Character
