The Walls Are Going Up …We’re Almost There, but the Goal Has Moved … WE NEED YOUR HELP NOW!
Last spring, we were within $100K of our fundraising goal of $1.0M for our new chapter house. Over the summer, another $54K was pledged, bringing us to within $46K of our goal. I stand in awe of the 136 brothers who have helped us get this far so quickly … THANK YOU! Also over the summer, the goal moved to $1.1M. Why? The recent construction cost estimate indicates that the final number for a completed and furnished house will be $3.0M-3.1M vs. the original $2.7M. We are asking you to join with the donating brothers and pay it forward. Rejoin your fraternity by supporting our capital campaign. CLICK HERE to learn more and to make your pledge.
