Foundation President Peter J. Nichols, AY '80

Phi Kappa Sigma remains a valuable learning and leadership experience, life-long commitment, and a philosophy of life.  The Phi Kappa Sigma Foundation continues its work to ensure our members have an excellent undergraduate experience and graduate to become not only productive members of society, but leaders with steadfast values and a duty to help their fellow man. 

The most meaningful lessons are the ones we experience personally. Hands on, up close, experiential learning brings concepts and theories to life in ways that last. Every dollar that we raise goes to fund a variety of important programs and truly impacts the lives of our members. “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach him how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.” We not only teach our members how to “fish,” we train them how to teach others. Educational and leadership development programs (Men of Honor and Key Sessions) and our new Scepter Mentor Program help us in this training.

When supporting Phi Kappa Sigma you are investing in a proven system that fosters humanitarian thought and encourages social obligation, all of which ultimately have the potential to deliver ongoing, exponential benefit to causes that at face value would seem to be more pressing on their own.

Every year brings new challenges in continuing the Foundation’s high quality programming. We are grateful for the ongoing financial support, and we hope more members will see the potential to do much more, by helping us support the great work done by the Foundation and International Fraternity. Without the Foundation, our members would not have these opportunities for personal growth, development, leadership and life experiences. Without you and your donation there would be no Foundation. Thank you in advance for your support of the Phi Kappa Sigma Foundation and International Fraternity.

PHI KAPPA SIGMA FOUNDATION MISSION

The Phi Kappa Sigma Foundation supports the development of ethical leaders and cultivates a lifelong commitment to the educational and charitable missions of Phi Kappa Sigma by: supporting educational and leadership programming initiatives, providing scholarships to support academic achievement, and enabling members and friends to support these programs through tax-deductible contributions. Through these efforts we help the Fraternity strengthen and grow its membership and provide the best membership experience possible.

Each year the Foundation brings valuable experiences, education, and scholarships to Phi Kaps young and old. 

2007-2008 Program Funding

• Men of Honor $32,000

• Key Sessions $4,000

• Maltese Cross $12,000

• UIFI (10 Scholarships) $5,000

We plan to increase the success of all of these programs in the coming year. We will also increase our interaction with all members by hosting more alumni events utilizing our METROPOLIS CAMPAIGN and integrating new forms of communication with FACEBOOK and LINKEDIN.  We will do all of this while remaining responsible stewards of your donation.
