Foundation Impact Statement 2017-2018 ImpactStatement17-18 | Page 16

SCHOLARSHIPS The pursuit of an education is fundamental to our members. Sigma Kappa Foundation is uniquely positioned as a resource for our members who need assistance as they face the rising cost of education today. Academic scholarships allow our sisters, both undergraduate and graduate students, to put more of their time and energy into academics and personal development during school. The Foundation also offers scholarships to attend Undergraduate Interfraternity Institute and Association of Fraternal Leadership & Values (AFLV) LeaderShape Institute summer conferences. While attending these conferences, participants enhance their leadership potential, foster personal growth and gain skills to positively impact their chapters and fraternity/sorority communities. /////////// /////////// /////////// /////////// $107,600 Total amount awarded $100,800 73 - Academic scholarships awarded $6,800 11 - Leadership scholarships awarded /////////// /////////// /////////// /////////// LeaderShape expanded my leadership knowledge way beyond the bounds of Greek life and has given me skills that I will carry forward in all aspects of my life. – Elle Jimenez, Alpha Mu, University of Michigan Leadership scholarship recipient, Spring 2018
