| FORM 990, PART XII, LINE 4A | THE ENDOWMENT FUND HAS A DISTINGUISHED HISTORY OF FUNDING PROGRAMS WHICH SET THE STANDARD AS SOME OF THE MOST FORWARD-LOOKING LEADERSHIP AND EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS AVAILABLE TO TODAY'S COLLEGIANS. THROUGH ASSEMBLING THE BEST MINDS IN LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT, SUBSTANCE ABUSE PREVENTION AND VALUES EDUCATION TRAINING, PHI PSI IS ABLE TO OFFER ITS YOUNGEST MEMBERS EXPERIENCES THAT THEY OTHERWISE WOULD NOT HAVE. THE ENDOWMENT FUND'S COMMITMENT TO EDUCATION AND A WELL-ROUNDED COLLEGE EXPERIENCE IS EVIDENT THROUGH GRANTS TO HELP IMPROVE CHAPTER EDUCATION AND TECHNOLOGY RESOURCES IN CHAPTER HOUSES, LEADERSHIP FELLOWSHIPS, ANNUAL GRANTS TO THE FRATERNITY AND ITS NATIONAL AND CHAPTER SCHOLARSHIP OFFERINGS. PROGRAMS SUCH AS THE PRESIDENTS LEADERSHIP ACADEMY, WOODROW WILSON LEADERSHIP SCHOOL, HAZINGPREVENTION.ORG PARTNERSHIP, STRENGTHSQUEST ASSESSMENT AND THE GREEKLIFEEDU INITIATIVE ARE THE CORNERSTONE OF THE FRATERNITY'S EFFORTS. DURING 2015, THE ENDOWMENT FUND PROVIDED $96,611.91 IN SUPPORT OF SUCH INITIATIVES. ADDITIONALLY, THE ENDOWMENT FUND IS COMMITTED TO NOT ONLY LEADERSHIP PROGRAMS BUT ALSO THE ACADEMIC SUCCESS OF ITS MEMBERS. FOR FISCAL YEAR 2015, EXPENSES ATTRIBUTABLE TO FELLOWSHIPS AND SCHOLARSHIPS TOTALED $579,066.37. THE ENDOWMENT FUND ALSO APPRECIATES THAT ONE'S PHYSICAL SURROUNDINGS HAVE A DRAMATIC IMPACT ON ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE AND THAT THE APPROPRIATE ENVIRONMENT CAN ASSIST IN PRODUCING SUPERIOR COLLEGE GRADUATES. THE ORGANIZATION'S CAMPAIGN FUND, EDUCATIONAL OPERATING, CHAPTER FELLOWSHIP FUND, MENTOR SCHOLARSHIP FUND AND CHAPTER SCHOLARSHIP FUND PROGRAMS ARE CONTINUALLY RECOGNIZED INTERFRATERNALLY AS REVOLUTIONARY AND ARE MET WITH GREAT FANFARE BY ALUMNI MEMBERS. THESE DISTINCTLY DIFFERENT FUNDS ASSIST GROUPS BY OFFERING FUNDING FOR MERIT AND NEED BASED AWARDS AND FELLOWSHIPS, THE MONIES NECESSARY FOR REPAIRS, UPGRADES OR EVEN THE PURCHASE OF NEW HOUSING, AND ALSO FOR THE OPERATION OF OUR CHAPTER FACILITIES. IN A CAPITAL CAMPAIGN, THERE IS THE NEED TO USE MONIES FOR MANY OTHER PURPOSES (FUNDRAISING, ARCHITECT/ENGINEERING, PERMITS, CONSTRUCTION, ETC.). AS SUCH, THE ENDOWMENT FUND MAINTAINED/ESTABLISHED CAMPAIGN FUNDS FOR 18 HOUSE CORPORATIONS THAT WERE INVOLVED IN CAPITAL CAMPAIGNS DURING 2015. THESE TEMPORARY FUNDS SUPPORT CAPITAL BUILDING PROJECTS AND SERVE AS A RECEPTACLE FOR MONIES, WHICH ARE TO BE DISBURSED TO THOSE RESPECTIVE GROUPS FOR APPROPRIATE GRANTS FOR THE CONSTRUCTION, RENOVATION AND OPERATION OF HOUSING FACILITIES. ACCORDING TO THE IRS, THE ENDOWMENT FUND IS ABLE TO MAKE GRANTS FROM THESE FUNDS TO HOUSE CORPORATIONS FOR THE CONSTRUCTION/RENOVATION EQUAL TO THE EDUCATIONAL PERCENTAGE OF THE FACILITY'S SPACE. IN 2015, THE ENDOWMENT FUND PROVIDED $1,434,825.04 IN CHAPTER-SPECIFIC GRANTS TO CHAPTER HOUSE CORPORATIONS AS A COMPONENT OF CHAPTER CAPITAL CAMPAIGNS. WHILE HOUSING IS NOT THE FOUNDATION'S PRIMARY FOCUS, SAFE, HEALTHY AND AN APPROPRIATE ACADEMIC ENVIRONMENT IS PARAMOUNT TO ONE'S SCHOLASTIC PURSUITS. CHAPTER SCHOLARSHIP FUNDS ALSO SERVED AS A LENDING SOURCE FOR 11 HOUSE CORPORATIONS IN 2015. |
