Greatest Need (Annual Fund)

Annual Fund Support

Gifts to the Annual Fund allow the Foundation to allocate resources wherever the need is greatest, including to

support programs to combat sexual assault, hazing, and substance abuse
provide training and speakers at virtual and in-person leadership conferences and Grand Convention
provide opportunities for mental wellness programs

Your gift to the Annual Fund on the Day of Giving will help us continue to offer these resources, as well as be prepared for new opportunities to support our Alpha Delta Pi sisters throughout the year.

Wesleyan Society: $1,851 or more per year ($154.25 monthly)
Octavia Andrew Rush Young Alumnae Society: $222.12 or more per year ($18.51 monthly) - eligible sisters will have been initiated within the last 13 years
