Thank you to all our 2022 Donors!

Thank you to all the alumni below who have contributed this year to support the legacy of Kappa Sigma at Miami University!

Our most recent Fiscal year (June 1, 2021-May 31, 2022) was a success on so many levels and with so many achievements! 

We saw our colony grow to 59 members and be reinstalled as a chartered chapter on February 26! Then we had 140+ Alumni and guests celebrate the 55th anniversary of our original founding on April 1, 1967.

Along the way we asked our alumni to support Theta-Upsilon's philanthropic event in the fall (Worldwide Run & Ride for the Oxford Clinic) helping them raise almost $6000 as the world began to ease out of a global pandemic, Stephen Alonzo Jackson Weekend of Giving which raised $10,835 for our Chapter's Endowment Fund account (12th most in the country) that supports annual scholarships for our members and to support our Chapter refurbishment fund which surpassed our initial goal and raised $34,500+ to help us buy meeting chairs and a couch and chairs for the new 2nd floor lounge in the Shoebox and other improvements over the summer.  This in addition to our normal requests to help support communications and events that bring our alumni together. 

Meanwhile your fellow Alumni on the Theta Upsilon Housing Company worked this spring to secure financing for renovations on the Shoebox and secure zoning use as a Fraternity House for the Shoebox (Stone House will remain zoned for "apartments" for the time being. (long story...) 

But all totaled, over 140 alumni (25 for the first time) donated.  While we recognize that there are things that make this last year exceptional, we hope that we continue to see similar commitment each year to support our chapter and efforts to make Kappa Sigma the pride of Miami University! 

A sincere Thank You, to everyone listed below who donated this fiscal year!     

A list of donors for the current fiscal year is listed on our website.
