Donate to the Kappa Sigma at Denison University Endowed Scholarship Fund
Over five years year ago, the Gamma-Xi House Corporation and Alumni Association Board in partnership with Denison University created the Kappa Sigma at Denison University Endowed Scholarship Fund.
This is a special fund which provides grants to members of the Gamma-Xi chapter who receive financial aid from Denison and who are deemed exceptional in their contribution to the chapter exemplified by the four pillars of Fellowship, Leadership, Scholarship and Service.
The current fund is part of the overall Denison Endowment fund and is invested and managed by Denison although exclusively used only for Kappa Sigma Members. As part of the DU fund, donations are tax deductible.
Yearly earnings are used to provide grants to qualifying members
The Board encourages and invites all alumni and friends to contribute to this worthy effort.
