Giving to the Purdue Greek Community

For many years now, IFC and Panhellenic have been saving 10% of their dues income in a reserve account. The councils have also taken advantage of several corporate sponsorship and fundraising opportunities. The result is a healthy savings account that will be used to establish a Greek leadership endowment which will annually supply additional funding.

Alumni, friends, and parents can help us in this effort. Your donation to the Purdue Foundation, earmarked for a council, will find its way to our reserve account. Simply make your check payable to "Purdue Foundation" and put the council name in the memo section of the check (such as "Interfraternity Council" or "Panhellenic Association" or "Nationanal PanHellenic Council" or "Multicultural Greek Council"). These donations are 100% tax-deductible.

Beyond simple cash gifts to grow our leadership endowment, we need alumni to serve as guest speakers at events like New Member Orientation, Board retreats, and other educational programs. There may be other ways you can give back as well - let us know! Our alumni are the single greatest resource for the Purdue Greek community. Thank you for your loyalty and support.
