ZETA CHI CHAPTER OF PI KAPPA ALPHA AT MISSOURI STATE UNIVERSITY
Zeta Chi Alumni Association
Establishes New Annual Giving Program
I
n an effort to ensure long-term success of the Zeta Chi Chapter, the
Zeta Chi Alumni Association has created a new annual alumni giving
program. All donations will go toward the association budget and annual
goals. This year's goal is $24,000. Donations will go toward the following:
• Bring the Zeta Chi Chapter Endowment fund to $10,000:
$4,000 is needed
• Establish a housing reserve fund to ensure the chapter can sustain
housing obligations during peaks and valleys: $5,000
• Grow leaders in Zeta Chi by sponsoring active brothers to attend
Pike University: $2,500
• Continue to fund the ZXAA operational budget, which includes
important items such as maintaining our Firetruck, alumni
communications, and alumni events: $12,429
This new annual giving program is replacing the dues structure that has
been in place. In order to accommodate our diverse alumni, we have
established five giving levels.
$50+ Annually—Young Alumni Club
Reserved specifically for recently graduated alumni, which is defined as
two years since gaining alumni status.
$100+ Annually—Distinguished Alumni Club
This is the most basic giving level.
$250+ Annually—1969 Club
Zeta Chi was founded in 1969. Celebrate our history with a gift of $250.
$500+ Annually—Garnet and Gold Club
For those alumni who can and are willing to give more to support the Zeta
Chi goals.
$1,000 and Above Annually—Phi Phi Club
The top giving tier for Zeta Chi alumni. The Phi Phi Club is for those
who strongly believe in brotherhood and supporting Zeta Chi at the
highest levels.
Participating in the annual campaign has never been easier as
monthly debits and online payments are now available on our website,
http://zetachi.kintera.org/alumni. The Zeta Chi Alumni Association
Executive Committee has already pledged its support and the undergraduate
members are extremely grateful.
Those who choose to donate will receive recognition in The Zeta Chi
Pikeline newsletter. Most importantly, these gifts will better the lives of our
active members and ensure long-term success at Missouri State University.
Our aim is for high participation in this program in order achieve our goals.
We humbly ask for your support as we continue the Zeta Chi journey.
Fraternally,
