Alpha Delta Pi - Oklahoma State University

Investing in the Future of Alpha Omicron GIFT STRUCTURE Because of the magnitude of our objectives, we urge all alumnae to consider stretch gifts to the campaign. In order for each alumna to maximize her participation, gifts can be structured over a five-year pledge period. Donors are able to establish a payment schedule that is best for you (annual, quarterly, or monthly options) and automated credit card payments can be established upon request. DONOR RECOGNITION Special naming opportunities will be offered to alumnae considering gifts of $10,000 and above. All donors contributing $2,500 or more will be recognized on a prominently displayed plaque in the Chapter house. Gifts in honor or in memory of other Alpha Delta Pi sisters, as well as family gifts, are welcome. Recognition in such cases will be given to both the donor and the honoree. Donors contributing $1,000 or more to the campaign will be recognized in campaign publications, unless otherwise requested. 100% TAX DEDCUTIBLE All donations will be tax deductible through the Alpha Delta Pi Foundation. e Internal Revenue Service will allow exclusively educational space in the Chapter house to be funded with tax-deductible dollars that are gifted to the Alpha Delta Pi Foundation and designated for Alpha Omicron Chapter. GIVING LEVELS AO Legacy ($100,000 and above) Founders Circle ($50,000 to $99,999) Black Diamond ($25,000 to $49,999) Lions Pride ($15,000 to $24,999) Violet Sisters ($10,000 to $14,999) Azure Blue and White ($5,000 to $9,999) Shining Stars ($2,500 to $4,999) Clasped Hands ($1,000 to $2,499) Actually staying in the house during our 2016 reunion was an eye- opening experience. It quickly became obvious to me how much this project is needed. As many wonderful memories as I have from my days in the Chapter house, I fully agree with the decision for a complete teardown. Our needs are not merely cosmetic and can't be resolved by a redecorating facelift. – Pam LaBorde Benjamin '77 I loved my time living in the AO house. To the casual observer, the house may not seem like it's in need of much, but after having stayed in the house over a recent weekend, I see that the rooms are not up to the current wants and needs of today's college-age sister. OSU has removed old dorms and replaced them with suite apartments. In Stillwater, the apartments rented to students come with stainless steel appliances and marble countertops. If we want AO-ADPi to stay on campus and be relevant in the future, we need a complete rebuild. – Nancy Sitler '76 Joining Alpha Delta Pi was one of the best decisions that I ever made. When I threw that small purple violet into that wishing well on Pref night many years ago, I knew at that moment, and hoped with all my being, that my wish would come true. And it did, and I have been forever changed. Our sisters now and all of those to come need our help to build the kind of Chapter house that is worthy to be called the home of the First and Finest Sorority—ADPi—at OSU. We need all of our sisters to join in this effort. We live for each other and for Al- pha Delta Pi. Our motto for me has never had more meaning and a call to action than now for my Alpha Omicron sisters—past, present, and future. – Arlene Hamm Manthey '75
