With the support of 250 participants, our total has reached $1,276,237. The renovations we've done so far to the chapter house have significantly improved the condition of the house, and these funds will go a long way to pay for expenses involved with the project. The donations we received at the end will also help to address the exterior renovations at a later date. On behalf of the campaign committee, we extend a sincere thank-you for your interest and participation in this worthwhile project. Your contributions and support have given a renewed sense of purpose to Iowa Gamma, and the undergraduate brothers are very appreciative. The benefits from a campaign such as this are far reaching. Phi Delta Theta is a strong fraternity at Iowa State University, in large part thanks to your commitments. The connections and reconnections that brothers from all generations have enjoyed are especially gratifying. We have had the opportunity to reconnect with many brothers, hear your stories, come together to celebrate, and continue the legacy of Iowa Gamma. We wish to thank those of you who assisted with this endeavor as members of the campaign committee, as members of the house corporation, as class leaders, and as someone who just picked up the phone to call a brother you had not talked with in a long time. The connections you likely made are true and lasting gifts. We encourage you to visit the house and share your memories of Phi Delta Theta and your days in Ames. The brothers love to hear these stories. The major campaign has ended, but your donations and support are always welcome. If you have made a pledge that is not completed, you will continue to receive payment notices per your schedule. It is important that all pledges be fulfilled to maintain Iowa Gamma's finances and complete our renovations. We are very proud to have been a part of this campaign and we thank you for your participation. Together, we have accomplished a major task. Many thanks to all!
