Stepping it Up

The Chapter Reaches Out to the Alumni for Support

This is a guest post by chapter members Niall McCarthy and Josh Chazen

Brothers, we believe alumni relations are one of the best aspects of fraternity life. We are hoping this upcoming semester to tap into our alumni base to help us with this semester’s recruitment in hopes of resetting the precedence DU held so many years ago. With your help, we can not only revive the image the Duck House held for decades, but also use the tools and resources available to rebrand Delta Upsilon. There are two ways we could use your help – a personal donation or sponsorship.

What we are asking is that our alumni reach out to any businesses they may own, be a part of, or know of that would possibly be interested in sponsoring our chapter for recruitment this fall. Sponsorships are very important for us, as they can provide products to draw rushees in, or bring us money that we can put towards events that would interest potentials. This is a very important rush for us, so bringing as many potential new members over as possible will be essential to our success; therefore any support will drastically help.

Sponsorship Levels:

Platinum: Donating $100 or providing a negotiated amount of product
• Logo included in our rush video
• Logo on our promotional rush cards
• Logo on a banner on our chapter house
• Logo on the back of our shirt
• A complementary rush shirt

Gold: Donating $75
• Logo included in our rush video
• Logo on our promotional rush cards
• Logo on a banner on our chapter house

Silver: Donating $50
• Logo included in our rush video
• Logo on our promotional rush card

Bronze: Donating $25
• Logo included in our rush video

To either donate or sponsor the chapter, you can use the secure Pay Pal button below. It will run through the alumni account for added security and the alumni association will forward your contribution to the chapter. If you prefer to make your donation in another way, contact us directly using the contact information provided at the bottom of this page. If your business makes the contribution, or if you make it a business expense, then your donation may be tax deductible. Consult with your tax adviser to be sure.

In addition to accepting sponsorships, the active chapter is also accepting donations.

Lastly, our rush week will be going in September. We will be holding our traditional Taco Tuesday with Alumni on September 10th and we would like to invite any alumni who are interested to join us to this event. This is a very important event as it can help convince many potential members the importance of the lifelong brotherhood we build.
