Courage to Be More Campaign

For more than 150 years, Pi Kappa Alpha has transformed young men through lifelong friendships, leadership opportunities and a shared commitment to our brotherhood. Today, approximately 17,000 members across more than 200 college campuses are building those same relationships and developing the skills and values that will shape their lives. At a time when young men increasingly need meaningful connections, positive role models, and a strong support network, the fraternity experience is more important than ever.

Campaign support will expand access to PIKE University conferences, chapter-based experiential learning, and personal and professional development opportunities. It will also strengthen alumni advisory boards and associations, create new opportunities for mentoring and career connectivity, improve alumni communications, and preserve the Fraternity’s history. At the same time, PIKE will invest in programs that address hazing, mental health, substance misuse, sexual violence and other challenges affecting today’s college men, empowering members to protect one another and truly live as their brother’s keeper.

More than 90 percent of the fraternity experience is currently funded by undergraduate members, placing much of the financial responsibility for new programs and initiatives on those PIKE seeks to serve. The Courage to Be More Campaign provides alumni and friends with an opportunity to change that model and build a stronger foundation for the future. With your support, PIKE can transform the Fraternity, transform the lives of countless men and prepare those men to transform the world.
