oxepsilon.org Epsilon Chapter is happy to announce plans for an alumni donations program using Donorbox. is new method will soon be available on our Chapter's website, www.oxepsilon.org, and will be the most cost- effective solution available to provide a richer set of options to maximize giving via one-time gifts, periodically scheduled donations, and donation "earmarking." More of your donation dollars will reach their intended purpose with Donorbox than with virtually any other service; 100% of the net proceeds for donations go directly toward maintaining the Chapter House and will be professionally managed by the EBA. In addition to the more traditional route of giving a one-time donation, Donorbox also provides support for automatically scheduling donations on a periodic basis (monthly/quarterly/annually). is is akin to many popular subscription services such as Netflix, HBO Max, and Spotify—set it and forget it! is will allow alumni to customize periodic donations when it's most convenient and in smaller amounts, if desired. With the subscription options, donations can be scheduled for as little as $5 a month. Conceivably, this is like committing to a "Beer a Month for eta Chi." Upon graduation, the senior class has committed to setting up donation subscriptions for $5 (or more) per month. is would continue their support of eta Chi post-graduation, further embracing the motto of being a "eta Chi for Life." Another great feature of Donorbox is the ability to "earmark" donations for a specific purpose. Alumni will be able to choose between several projects needed at the house, such as new backyard fencing, replacing bathroom light fixtures, and updating electrical components. Stay tuned for more specific information on this front and as new earmarking targets are identified. Donorbox will soon be available on the newly updated website, www. oxepsilon.org. is will provide a well-known destination for information about Epsilon Chapter and be a convenient place to make donations to the Chapter. e program will be available on the front page of the website as well as a devoted "Alumni" sub-section. As a Chapter, we are excited to see how this new donation program will impact the future of the Chapter and fraternity. Fraternally, Kevin Ramos '22 Alumni Relations Committee Chairman SUPPORT EPSILON CHAPTER WITH DONORBOX Visit the Chapter Website to Make Alumni Donations With the advent of the new alumni donations program using Donorbox comes the dawn of a new prospective future. For the Chapter, this comes in the form of new "earmarking" options to redirect donations from active Brothers and alumni to specific projects of interest. Due to the availability of this new program on our website, www.oxepsilon.org, we have identified specific maintenance needs for the Chapter House for which donations can be earmarked or redirected. ese projects will be added and removed based upon needs at the Chapter House. Below are some of the projects that have been identified. A more complete list of new projects and initiatives will be on the alumni page on the Chapter website. As always, we thank our generous alumni Brothers for their dedication and loyalty to Epsilon Chapter. A progress bar will be provided for each project as money is donated to address the most important needs at Theta Chi.
