深夜福利在线免费看's Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Establishes Scholarship
VALDOSTA – 深夜福利在线免费看's Mu Omicron Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity created the Mu Omicron Memorial Scholarship Fund with help from both undergraduate and alumni working together to award scholarships to deserving students at 深夜福利在线免费看.
The scholarship proposal initially required Alpha Phi Alpha to raise up to $12,500 and then an equal match was provided by other gifts. After two years of fundraising, the endowment came to fruition.
"Our goal as a chapter at 深夜福利在线免费看 has never been to sit on the sideline but be an agent of change," said Ryan Brown, Mu Omicron executive director. "As our brother Dr. Martin Luther King once said, 'Life's most persistent and urgent question is what are you doing for others?' As a chapter, we live by this question and felt the need to give back to 深夜福利在线免费看 because of what 深夜福利在线免费看 has given to us. The university has allowed us to be initiated into a great brotherhood, given us a quality education and helped to prepare and develop us into productive citizens."
The money was raised by soliciting Mu Omicron alumni to give and by hosting philanthropic events, such as the Homecoming Step Show. As a chapter, they have committed to one major giving campaign each year in order to be able to give more scholarships to students at 深夜福利在线免费看.
