It’s time for the annual Psi Upsilon March Challenge!
Thanks to the support of brothers like you the 2021 Psi Upsilon March Challenge was a success. Brothers gave, shared photos and stories on social media, and over a dozen volunteer “boosters” used the week to reach out to their friends and chapters to invite new donors and matching donations. With your very generous help, we raised just over $40,000.00 from 190 brothers.
The March Challenge for Psi Upsilon’s annual fund begins THIS THURSDAY, March 24th!
Please consider making a gift, and help spread the word to your chapter brothers!
You can be on the scoreboard when the challenge starts Thursday by making a gift at https://psiu.crowdchange.co/23588 and check in anytime to see how your chapter is performing.
We want to congratulate the outstanding participation of the Omicron chapter in 2021, who won the Challenge, and the Gamma Tau and Phi chapters who had very impressive turn out! But the running was close and this year any chapter can easily win the challenge!
The March Challenge specifically helps support the growth of the fraternity; because of last year’s success we’ve seen some big changes in Psi Upsilon:
- We’ve been able to renew our recruitment certification program to help educate members on best practices to attract potential new members and market their chapters. This program usually costs $40 a participant, but is free to all members of Psi U.
- We hired a Director of Growth for the first time at Psi U. He is not only assisting struggling chapters with coaching assistance, but is working on an overall expansion plan to better support the reactivation of closed chapters and cultivating new ones.
- We created a partnership with Phired Up Productions and had their President keynote our 177th Convention last summer.
These efforts helped us initiate 263 members in the Fall of 2021 – for context we had 119 New Members join in the Fall of 2020, and 231 in the Fall of 2019 before the pandemic. Make no mistake – the gifts from alumni like you helped make this happen!
Bear in mind, gifts of any amount count for the challenge, so don’t be shy and help your chapter represent. Founder’s Society benefits start at gifts of $250.
Please reach out with any questions or concerns to Jonathan Chaffin, Director of Member Engagement (jonathan@psiu.org) or 317-571-1833 ext 104.
Be healthy and safe. We are grateful for your generosity and enthusiasm!
Yours In the Bonds,
