During Kappa Sigma’s 10th annual Stephen Alonzo Jackson Weekend of Giving, from February 28 – March 2, 2025, the Fraternity shattered yet another record with 19,640 total alumni, undergraduate and family member donations. That generosity helped raise more than $1.1 million for undergraduate scholarships!

The culture of giving is alive and well in Kappa Sigma. The Fraternity could not be prouder of its Undergraduate Brothers, in particular, who set another new record with 86% of its undergraduate members participating in this worthy cause.
 
Chapters across North America worked tirelessly to raise money for Chapter Scholarship Funds and create named scholarships to honor some of Kappa Sigma’s most beloved Brothers. As a result, several new named Scholarship-Leadership Awards now will be presented each year in perpetuity, including:
   

$50,000 Named Scholarships ($2,000 Awarded Annually)

Dale F. Morrison Scholarship-Leadership Award (Delta-Mu, University of North Dakota)
Dave E. Ledman Scholarship-Leadership Award (Theta-Upsilon, Miami University)
Dr. James “Doc” Johnson Scholarship-Leadership Award (Kappa, Vanderbilt University)

$25,000 Named Scholarships ($1,000 Awarded Annually)

Speaker Mike Johnson Scholarship-Leadership Award (Gamma, Louisiana State University)
PWGM Thomas P. Bishop Scholarship-Leadership Award (Alpha-Beta, Mercer University)
PWGM Donal L. McClamroch, Jr. Scholarship-Leadership Award (Eta, Randolph-Macon College)
Jack H. Haaker Scholarship-Leadership Award (Delta-Pi, Southern Methodist University)
Clayson R. Anderson Scholarship-Leadership Award (Delta-Chi, Mississippi State University)

In its 10-year history, SAJ Weekend has now raised more than $6 million towards Chapter Scholarship Funds and named scholarships, which provide hundreds of additional scholarships for our undergraduate Brothers. 

“Stephen Alonzo Jackson Weekend of Giving has become one of the most consequential and meaningful annual campaigns in Kappa Sigma over the past decade,” said Burt Trembly, President of Kappa Sigma’s Board of Directors. “To raise over a million dollars in 72 hours shows the power of the Kappa Sigma Brotherhood. These scholarship funds will help thousands of undergraduates for years to come.”

If you missed out on donating this weekend, there is still time to make a tax-deductible donation in support of our undergraduates. Please visit the Kappa Sigma Endowment Fund website to learn more.

On behalf of a grateful Fraternity: THANK YOU!
