This campaign runs for 1,904 minutes (31 hours and 44 minutes) and is an international effort to inspire collegiate and alumnae sisters, as well as parents and friends of Alpha Gamma Delta, to help provide essential support for women’s education, philanthropy and leadership. Give a gift of any size to your favorite area of focus!

Can I give before March 27?

Of course! Make your gift here. All gifts will be added to the #AlphaGamGives page during Day of Giving on March 27 and count toward the total dollars raised.

Will I receive a receipt?

Absolutely! After you make your gift, you will receive a confirmation email that can be used for tax purposes as allowed by U.S. law.

     - Academy for Collegiate Officers/Academy for Chapter Advisors
     - Acorn virtual learning platform

I'm a collegiate member. How can I help?

#AlphaGamGives is a day for all Alpha Gams to be inspired. Here are some ways that you can get involved:

1. Participate in the collegiate '$1K in a Day" - Check to see if your chapter is participating in our '$1K in a Day' fundraising competition. If so, spread the word by sharing your chapter's '$1K in a Day' fundraising page! (Your VP - Philanthropy received the invite to set up your chapter's page and was asked to mange this event for your chapter.)

2. Give a one-time gift – All gifts (small and large) are appreciated and help us reach our goal of 1,000 donors during Day of Giving.

3. GEM Society – For as little as the cost of one cup of coffee a month, you can become a member of the Give Every Month (GEM) Society and provide ongoing support for your sisters. For more information contact Jessica at jprice@alphagammadeltafoundation.org.

Can I make a monthly gift?

Absolutely!

Joining the Give Every Month (GEM) Society is an easy, automatic way to support Alpha Gam. It's convenient and helps ensure ongoing support for the Foundation and Fraternity. Additionally, GEMs receive special recognition in the Foundation’s Gratitude Report, at Convention, in publications, on the website and on social media throughout the year.

You can set up your monthly gift by credit card or direct debit from your bank account. Contact us at foundation@alphagammadeltafoundation.org to join the GEM Society!

Can I support my chapter?

Yes! There are several ways to support your chapter. 

- Give to your chapter specific scholarship or leadership fund through the giving page.

- Give to the Annual Fund (our area of greatest need) which supports ALL chapters with funding for the leadership academies, professional development, mental health training, Convention and so much more. The Annual Fund benefits our sisters and our communities by providing resources where they are most needed. 

How can my collegiate chapter get involved?

Chapters are invited and encouraged to participate in a virtual, 24-hour event, ‘$1K in a Day.’ The Vice President - Philanthropy can find out more here. Want to see which chapters are in the lead, starting March 27 at 6 a.m. ET? Find out here.

Money raised by your chapter from '$1K in a Day' will count towards Jewel Society status and Convention recognition. 

Will my gift count towards my annual giving recognition in the Gratitude Report and on the Foundation's website?

Yes. Your gift through #AlphaGamGives applies to your recognition in the Foundation's Gratitude Report for the 2023-2024 giving year and Jewel Society membership, now starting at $1,000 annually. See our Giving Societies on our website. (Our fiscal giving year is June 1 through May 31.)

My employer offers a gift matching program. Are gifts on Day of Giving eligible?

Definitely! You will receive an email confirmation of your gift that can be used for tax and gift matching purposes.

I'm donating from another country, are donations processed in my country's currency?

No. All donations are processed as U.S. Dollars (USD). We hope you will still consider helping us reach our goal of 1,000 donors. Gifts of all sizes count.

Can I set up my own match or challenge?

Yes! Contact the Foundation to get started!
