Foundation News | Do Phi Sig chapters raise the most funds?
Record-breaking donations may be tops in Greek world, too
|
Here's a mind-blowing statistic: Phi Sig chapters donated an incredible $225,000 to our Foundation this past year - breaking all previous records. This marks a 27% increase over the previous year and a whopping 209% boost since 2002! (What's more, it's believed our chapters raise significantly more funds for our Foundation than many, if not most, top Greek organizations.)
Says Foundation President Candace Hogan: "We were blown away by the news. It's more than evident that these young sisters genuinely have a passionate commitment to philanthropy." Funds benefit two kidney foundations, the U.S. Transplant Games, scholarships and more.

Phi Sig Pride | 'Our Sphinxhead, proud and true...'

 You know the best thing about being a Phi Sig? (Of course you do.) The FUN.

Jessie wrote when sending this along. From the looks of it, she could also say "ahoooy!" - and likely did, since it was Spring Break! Send us your Phi Sig Pride photos! You could be featured here!
