My Testimonial

Thank you to the donors for their financial support of this scholarship. Sigma Chi has profoundly shaped my life throughout college, and knowing that there are brothers beyond my own chapter who are willing to assist me in my journey further reinforces that Sigma Chi is a fraternity like no other. This scholarship will help my mom and I cover the cost of my final year of college, for which I will be forever grateful.

I also want to thank the selection committee for choosing me. I know there were likely many deserving candidates, and I must admit, it feels especially rewarding as I am serving as my chapter’s Consul this year. Sigma Chi welcomed me as a freshman and instilled in me values and an example of how to positively impact the lives of others. It is this example that I now strive to follow to make a positive difference in college and life after.

Thank you again for selecting me. I hope to one day give back to the fraternity in the same meaningful way.
