Delta Sigma Pi - Beta Phi

Leadership Foundation

For over 60 years, the brothers of Delta Sigma Pi and corporate partners have been supporting the education of fellow brothers through the Delta Sigma Pi Leadership Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization. A social investment in the Foundation provides funding through academic scholarships and Fraternity educational programming.

The Mission of the Delta Sigma Pi Leadership Foundation:
"The Delta Sigma Pi Leadership Foundation exists to generate and provide financial support for Delta Sigma Pi Fraternity’s educational and charitable programs, which assist members to achieve individual and professional excellence within the business community."

All members of Delta Sigma Pi are encouraged to support the Leadership Foundation and its mission and programs through annual contributions. The Foundation is recognized by the federal government as a charitable and educational corporation. All contributions are deductible for estate and income tax purposes.

What does the Leadership Foundation do?
To fulfill its mission, the Leadership Foundation raises money from members and other supporters and then gives that money away in the form of scholarships and grants for educational programming of the Fraternity.

Some ways the Leadership Foundation contributes to its members:

-Awarding 32 scholarships of more than $18,000 annually to the chapters’ top member – recognized through the Collegian of the Year program
