Every year hundreds of Beta Parents, wives/widows, Fraternity/Sorority professionals, and other Friends of Beta support the Beta Foundation. The Foundation is encouraged that many believe you don’t need to be a member of Beta Theta Pi to believe in and support our mission of building men of principle for a principled life.
The two most popular ways Beta parents and other Friends of Beta support the Foundation is by purchasing a brick in Beta’s walkway and memorial gardens or by making a contribution to the Beta Leadership Fund in honor of a Beta or fellow Friend of Beta. If you would like to purchase a brick or make a contribution in honor of someone, click one of the options to the right and include the honoree’s information in the comments box on the giving page.
Special thanks is giving to these honorary chairmen who are assisting with our Beta Parent and Friend of Beta giving efforts this year::
• Honorary Parent Chairmen Lee and Phyllis Davis – Parents of former chapter president James Davis, Mississippi ’10

Friend of Beta Giving ProgramNot only do Friends of Beta support the Fraternity with their time as advisors and facilitators, but they also give of their treasure to the Beta Leadership Fund as well. Longtime Friend of Beta, Eli Ker, is serving as the 2011-12 Honorary Friend of Beta Chair. Eli is a member of Sigma Phi Epsilon and the Associate Director for Fraternity and Sorority Life at Clemson University, and we are honored to have his service.

Parent Giving ProgramEach year Beta Parents not only support their sons chapters at the local level, but they also support their son’s development through generous gifts to the Beta Leadership Fund. With the help of the Beta Foundation's Honorary Parent Chairs Tim and Melanie Breedlove, the Parent Giving Program is well under way. Beta Parents should watch for electronic updates on all the good things happening in the Fraternity both from this year’s Honorary Parent Chairs and from the Fraternity’s monthly e-newsletter. Developing men of principle for a principled life is a mission Beta is proud to share with the parents of our young men across North America. Take Advantage of the Newly Expanded Beta WalkwayThe most popular way Beta parents and other Friends of Beta support the Foundation is by purchasing a brick in the Beta Walkway at the Fraternity’s Administrative Office in Oxford, Ohio. Parents and Friends of Beta are encouraged to purchase bricks for themselves, as they will be placed in the newly expanded Parents and Friend of Beta sections of the walkway. Bricks can also be purchased for other individuals, and they make great holiday, birthday, or graduation gifts. To purchase a brick in the Beta Walkway, click here. |
