  • What is the Clara’s Circle Leadership Council?

Join us in making history with your gift to Clara’s Circle. Your gift honors and supports the Alpha Phi sisterhood, making an impact in the future of your sisters today and tomorrow.

  • Why donate?

    Does the idea of “philanthropy” conjure images of buildings on your campus named after wealthy alumni? Think boards of directors sounds like something only a bunch of rich families sit on in their spare time? Women are the fastest growing donor group in the non-profit world. This is your opportunity to change the stereotype and change the world through the power of your philanthropy.

    As Alpha Phis, we see what stewardship can do. Our chapters are the living, evolving embodiment of what “leaving something better than you found it” can truly mean to someone else. We’ve felt the love and joy in our own chapter’s traditions, in passing the gavel to the newest group of women to don our letters. Giving back and being generous are crucial parts of philanthropy. Clara’s Circle is your opportunity to channel that spirit into ensuring Alpha Phi continues to be the great organization you’ve gotten to be a part of.

    By joining Clara’s Circle, you will see how important it is to donate money to non-profit and other worthy organizations and to commit yourself to helping others. Alpha Phi Foundation is your philanthropy. Through it, you can channel your gifts to make and important impact on society – on your campus, in your community, and in the world.

    Your gifts help grow our programs – including scholarships, leadership opportunities, Forget Me Not Fund grants and women’s heart health innovations—that will allow further education and development of you and your sisters. Your participation in Clara’s Circle is an investment in our sisterhood, and advances all women’s lives through the power of your philanthropy.
