2012 Gamma Xi Capital Campaign Underway

In the last 4 years, Gamma Xi alumni have given over $50,000 back to the chapter. These funds have greatly helped the chapter and the chapter house. We have replaced the sun deck, repainted the house, re-did the kitchen and downstairs bathroom, and repaired the roof, floors, fence, heating system and plumbing. Much of this work was performed with plenty of elbow grease from the undergrad members. The repairs have made the chapter more attractive for recruitment, more comfortable to live in, and allowed the chapter to increase its membership. We encourage you to stop by and take a look.

The chapter house is 51 years young this year and it still needs a lot of work. The property has not had a major remodel since it was built. We all have fond memories of the times we shared at 123 South 11th Street. With that said, the plumbing needs to be upgraded, the bathrooms remodeled, the roof, windows, inside doors and door frames replaced, and many other items repaired or upgraded. These improvements are budgeted to cost over $250,000. The list is long. Our immediate goal for this year is to replace the ageing bathrooms. The cost to do this is $90,000.

Please support our efforts — every little bit will help. Every penny you contribute goes directly to the physical well being the chapter house.

If you would like to discuss getting more involved in the chapter and the Alumni Board, please contact us. We are looking for volunteers for the Alumni Board and sponsors for the chapter house improvements.
