Alumnae Challenge: Celebrating
Silver, Going for Gold! Fundraising for the National Convention
2009 25th Anniversary Celebration
In order to celebrate our 25th anniversary
with the flair it deserves, Phi Sigma Rho is going to need your
help! The Convention 2009 Committee and National Council are
challenging you to sponsor some special items for our
celebration. Here are some things that we would like to have at
Convention that an individual, alumnae association, or other
group can sponsor:
- Convention 2009 favors
- Nametag printing
- PSR lanyards for nametags
- Awards Banquet centerpieces
- Awards Banquet programs
- DJ for Awards Banquet & socials
- Awards Banquet favors
- Corsages for VIP attendees
- Food for social activities (snacks/dessert)
- Guest Book/scrapbooking supplies/picture matte to sign
- Banners (Phi Sigma Rho, 25th Anniversary, LEAP, etc.)
- Candles
- White Christmas lights
- State of the Sorority booklet binding
- Sorority candy (M&M's, chocolate, etc)
- Anything else that you think of!
Here's how you can participate:
- Find a group of people (Alumnae Association, classes, chapter,
corporation, individual, etc.) that are interested in joining in
the challenge.
*If you need help raising money or would like to join with
another Chapter or Alumnae Association, let us know and we'll
help you get in touch!
*Donations may be made anonymously, or in honor/behalf of
another person or organization.
- Pick an item from our wish list (or come up with your own).
*Items will be posted on a first-come, first-serve basis.
- Commit to sponsoring that item by FEBRUARY 1st, 2009.
- We will post who is sponsoring what on our
Convention 2009 website.
- Make a check payable to Phi Sigma Rho Sorority by MAY 1st, 2009.
- Work with National Council and the Convention 2009 Committee on
selecting and coordinating the order.
- Come to Convention 2009 and help us celebrate!
Additional things to consider:
- The committee will work with you to prioritize our wish list and your
donation if necessary.
- All donations are subject to approval by the Convention 2009 Committee.
- Donations to PSR are not tax-deductible.
*To make a tax-deductible donation, you must donate to the
Phi Sigma Rho Foundation
*Donations through the Foundation can cover educational and
professional activities; therefore many of the items on this
list cannot be covered this way. Foundation donations will go
towards speakers, LEAP, and other appropriate items.
Please contact an Alumnae Challenge Committee Chair,
Allison Lenhoff or
Monique Chinchar, if you have questions, need more info, or
would like to participate!

Thanks AA Chairs!
Thank you to all the Alumnae Association chairs who serve
their chapters and National Council. They are a critical
communication link between National Council and the alumnae. If
your chapter does not have an Alumnae Association
(Washington-Mu, Houston-Upsilon, UCI-Pi, Arkansas-Kappa) and you
are interested in helping start your AA, please contact the
Vice President of Alumnae Affairs. If
you are not receiving communications, please email the
Vice President as
well.
