The post Record Total Donations Deliver Over $1.1 Million for SAJ Weekend of Giving appeared first on Kappa Sigma Fraternity.

During Kappa Sigma’s 10th annual Stephen Alonzo Jackson Weekend of Giving, from February 28 – March 2, 2025, the Fraternity shattered yet another record with 19,640 total alumni, undergraduate and family member donations. That generosity helped raise more than $1.1 million for undergraduate scholarships!

The culture of giving is alive and well in Kappa Sigma. The Fraternity could not be prouder of its Undergraduate Brothers, in particular, who set another new record with 86% of its undergraduate members participating in this worthy cause.
 
Chapters across North America worked tirelessly to raise money for Chapter Scholarship Funds and create named scholarships to honor some of Kappa Sigma’s most beloved Brothers. As a result, several new named Scholarship-Leadership Awards now will be presented each year in perpetuity, including:
   

$50,000 Named Scholarships ($2,000 Awarded Annually)

Dale F. Morrison Scholarship-Leadership Award (Delta-Mu, University of North Dakota)
Dave E. Ledman Scholarship-Leadership Award (Theta-Upsilon, Miami University)
Dr. James “Doc” Johnson Scholarship-Leadership Award (Kappa, Vanderbilt University)

$25,000 Named Scholarships ($1,000 Awarded Annually)

Speaker Mike Johnson Scholarship-Leadership Award (Gamma, Louisiana State University)
PWGM Thomas P. Bishop Scholarship-Leadership Award (Alpha-Beta, Mercer University)
PWGM Donal L. McClamroch, Jr. Scholarship-Leadership Award (Eta, Randolph-Macon College)
Jack H. Haaker Scholarship-Leadership Award (Delta-Pi, Southern Methodist University)
Clayson R. Anderson Scholarship-Leadership Award (Delta-Chi, Mississippi State University)
Thomas L. Worgess Scholarship-Leadership Award (Delta-Psi, Michigan State University, ’95)

In its 10-year history, SAJ Weekend has now raised more than $6 million towards Chapter Scholarship Funds and named scholarships, which provide hundreds of additional scholarships for our undergraduate Brothers. 

“Stephen Alonzo Jackson Weekend of Giving has become one of the most consequential and meaningful annual campaigns in Kappa Sigma over the past decade,” said Burt Trembly, President of Kappa Sigma’s Board of Directors. “To raise over a million dollars in 72 hours shows the power of the Kappa Sigma Brotherhood. These scholarship funds will help thousands of undergraduates for years to come.”

If you missed out on donating this weekend, there is still time to make a tax-deductible donation in support of our undergraduates. Please visit the Kappa Sigma Endowment Fund website to learn more.

On behalf of a grateful Fraternity: THANK YOU!

The Donald C. Dilley, Jr. Scholarship Leadership Award Program is named in honor of Brother Donald C. Dilley, Jr, a 1953 initiate of the Epsilon-Phi Chapter at Texas Tech. Brother Dilley was a legacy as his father, Donald Dilley, Sr. was a Gamma-Omicron initiate at the University of Kansas. Brother Dilley served our country in the United States Navy. Following his retirement from the Navy, he was a farmer in Texas until he retired to Florida. Brother Dilley believed in education and providing scholarships to the Brothers of Kappa Sigma across North America.

    This past Friday, May 3rd, Kappa Sigma Fraternity honored our 90th Man of the Year, Brother Craig D. Melvin (Alpha-Nu, Wofford College, ’98)! We were pleased to celebrate with Alpha-Nu undergraduates, alumni from across North America, Brother Melvin’s family, and members of the Wofford College faculty, including President Dr. Nayef Samhat.

    Check out this clip of Brother Melvin discussing the evening from the 3rd Hour of the Today Show on May 6th.

    The event was held at the Jerry Richardson Indoor Stadium on the campus of Wofford College in Spartanburg, South Carolina. Chairman of the Endowment Fund Thomas P. Bishop, Esq. (Alpha-Beta, Mercer University, ’79), and all five members of the Supreme Executive Committee were in attendance. The program was led by Executive Director Emeritus Mitchell B. Wilson (Beta-Nu, University of Kentucky, ’78).

    We are very thankful to Alpha-Nu Alumnus Advisor Brother David Pittman, Ph.D. (Alpha-Nu, Wofford College, ’91), Dr. Blanding Jones (Alpha-Nu, Wofford College, ’89), and the Chapter leaders at Alpha-Nu for their assistance in making this a special and unforgettable evening.

    Congratulations to Brother Melvin, a most deserving Kappa Sigma Man of the Year!

    The Star and Crescent is coming to the Crescent City! Over 1800 Brothers will descend on New Orleans this summer to celebrate this year’s successes: from a record-breaking Stephen Alonzo Jackson Weekend of Giving to a record-breaking Military Heroes Month and An Expansion Like No Other, restoring historic campuses and establishing new ones.

    Leadership Conference is our premiere event for officer training, networking, and unveiling our newest programs and initiatives. This year, we have some fantastic surprises in store.

    Ensure your Chapter has selected its delegates; contact the EC for a Delegate Code if you still need to. Each Chapter receives: 1 Room (Shared with other Chapter Delegates) and 4 Delegate Registration Codes. 

    Undergraduate Brothers can also register without the delegate code for $150 and book your hotel separately. Additionally, if you would like to gain Kappa Sigma/Events experience, Kappa Sigma is looking for a team of conference interns to help implement this event onsite.

     

    So visit the historic city of New Orleans, from the haunted locations of the French Quarter to beignets at Cafe Du Monde. Enjoy Bourbon Street (But skip the second hurricane) and the amazing food in the cajun and creole kitchens.

    This year, we have created the option for an Alumnus to sponsor an undergraduate Brother so he can attend the Leadership Conference in New Orleans. For $1,000, you will cover the cost of registration, travel, and lodging for one undergraduate Brother of your choice. This program aims to ensure that any undergraduate Brother who wishes to attend the Leadership Conference has the opportunity to do so.

    For the first time ever, Kappa Sigma raised more than $1.28 million from March 1-3, 2024, with more to come from additional donations, corporate matches, and challenge gifts. Our Chapters across North America worked tirelessly to raise money for Chapter Scholarship Funds and create named scholarships to honor some of Kappa Sigma’s most beloved Brothers.

    As a result, 16 new named Scholarship-Leadership Awards will be awarded every year in perpetuity:


    $50,000 Named Scholarships ($2,000 Awarded Annually)

    Thomas J. Clifford Scholarship-Leadership Award (Delta-Mu, University of North Dakota)
    Greg A. Hopeman Scholarship-Leadership Award (Epsilon-Mu, The University of Tulsa)
    D. Malcom McNair, Jr. Scholarship-Leadership Award (Xi, University of Arkansas)
    Craig D. Melvin Scholarship-Leadership Award (Alpha-Nu, Wofford College)
    Vann S. Mullis, Sr. Scholarship-Leadership Award (Chi-Omega, University of South Carolina)
    Craig R. Poole Scholarship-Leadership Award (Beta-Beta, University of Richmond)
    Leroy D. Peer Scholarship-Leadership Award (Theta-Zeta, Eastern New Mexico University)

    $25,000 Named Scholarships ($1,000 Awarded Annually)

    David M. “Boo” Ferriss Scholarship-Leadership Award (Delta-Chi, Mississippi State University)
    Moby G. Goodwin Scholarship-Leadership Award (Theta-Rho, McNeese State University)
    Frank W. Harrison, Jr. Scholarship-Leadership Award (Gamma, Louisiana State University)
    Dr. James W. “Doc“ Johnson Scholarship-Leadership Award (Kappa, Vanderbilt University)
    Nolan D. Pearson Scholarship-Leadership Award (Omicron-Zeta, University of Hawai’i at Mānoa)
    Coach Bill SanGiacomo Scholarship-Leadership Award (Theta-Xi, Trine University)
    Edward G. Sponzilli Scholarship-Leadership Award (Gamma-Upsilon, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey)
    Andrew Stuper Scholarship-Leadership Award (Gamma-Tau, University of Colorado Boulder)
    Lynn M. Welker Scholarship-Leadership Award (Theta-Omicron, Muskingum University)
    Dr. Nicholas S. Hagen Scholarship-Leadership Award (Rho, Arizona State University)

    Record breaking is the understatement of this weekend; we broke a new record with more individual donors participating with more gifts than any previous SAJ Weekend. Our Undergraduate Brothers also set a record with 76% participating in this worthy cause.



    In its nine-year history, SAJ Weekend has now raised more than $5 million towards Chapter Scholarship Funds and named scholarships, which will provide hundreds of additional scholarships for our undergraduate Brothers. The impact of these gifts goes beyond undergraduate support because they honor the legacy of Brothers that have had a significant impact on the Fraternity. A great example of this is the following excerpt from a letter received from the mother of Brother Nolan Pearson. Brother Pearson joined the Chapter Celestial in 2019:

    “A couple weeks ago I received a message from a friend of Nolan Pearson ‘s. I truly love hearing from Nolan’s friends. Well, this message turned into…a huge blessing outcome…not for us…but for someone…hopefully many.

    “Nolan attended the University of Hawaii @ Manoa and was a member of Kappa Sigma Fraternity. This weekend… it’s an honor to share with you that they are fundraising to establish a scholarship in Nolan’s name. 

    “This is March…Nolan’s birthday month. We’ve tried to think of things nice to do for others in his name these last 4 years…perhaps THIS is that nice thing! We know he would think this wonderful. And the fact that it will forever benefit students is a win-win in so many ways.”

    Kappa Sigma has one of the fastest growing Endowment Funds in the fraternal world, and this weekend we showed everyone that the Kappa Sigma Fraternity is truly A Brotherhood Like No Other! We made history this weekend, but the real reward will come this Fall as we award these new named scholarships, and Scholarship-Leadership Awards! 



    If you missed out on donating this weekend, there is still time to make a tax-deductible donation in support of our undergraduates. Please visit the Kappa Sigma Endowment Fund website to learn more.

    Thank You to everyone who has donated this weekend!

    The Supreme Executive Committee and Endowment Fund Trustees
