Day of Giving
1,904 Minutes to Give Back. A Lifetime of Impact.
This fall, as undergraduate brothers return to campus and new associate members begin their Pi Kappa Phi journey, the Pi Kappa Phi Foundation invites you to be part of something exceptional.
Pi Kappa Phi’s Day of Giving has moved from December to September. As our undergraduate members take on leadership roles, resume their studies and prepare their chapters for the year ahead, your generosity helps power their success from day one.
Why September?
Pi Kappa Phi is built on the belief that leadership starts early, and our brothers are different from day one. By moving our Day of Giving to the beginning of the academic year, we’re giving you the chance to support them from day one, too. Your gift provides brothers with access to leadership development, educational programming, scholarship awards and more, right when they need it most.
Your Gift Continues a Legacy
The late Durward Owen, Xi (Roanoke), believed deeply in the lifelong impact of fraternity. He dedicated his career to helping young men grow, lead and serve. When you give to the Pi Kappa Phi Foundation, you honor his legacy and help ensure his vision lives on for generations.
Let’s Build What’s Next, Together
Whether you’re an alumnus, undergraduate, parent or friend of the Fraternity, your support fuels the mission of Pi Kappa Phi.
Join us on September 9 for 1,904 minutes of giving and help shape the future of our brotherhood.
