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 fundraising page! (Your VP-Philanthropy is the primary contact and manager for this event.)
2. Give a one-time gift – All gifts (of any size) are appreciated and help us make an impact on Day of Giving.
3. Join the 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 the Foundation.
Can I make a monthly gift?
Absolutely! Joining the Give Every Month (GEM) Society is an easy, automatic way to support the Alpha Gam Foundation and Fraternity. 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 the Foundation 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 ‘$1K in a Day’ fundraising competition. The Vice President - Philanthropy can find out more here. Want to see which chapters are in the lead, starting March 26 at 6 a.m. ET? Follow along here.
Money raised by your chapter from '$1K in a Day' will count towards Jewel Society status and Convention recognition. Top-fundraising and top-participating chapters will receive a special prize from the Alpha Gam Boutique.
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 2024-25 giving year and Jewel Society membership, 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). Gifts of all sizes make an incredible difference.
Can I set up my own match or challenge?
Yes! Contact the Foundation to get started!
