With Gratitude: Celebrating Donor Recognition Month

In November, Pi Beta Phi celebrates Donor Recognition Month—an opportunity to honor the sisters and friends who give to Pi Beta Phi Foundation and make a lasting impact on our sisterhood. From expanding leadership development opportunities and literacy initiatives to supporting academic aspirations, donor contributions ensure Pi Phi remains a constant source of encouragement and belonging for every sister. To our donors, we extend our deepest gratitude—the impact we achieve together would not be possible without you. 

In the 2023-2024 Impact Report, we shared stories that reflect the true power of donor generosity—take a look at some of the highlights below and read the full report here.

“Scholarships allow members, such as myself, who could not otherwise afford to go to school and be in a sorority, to have the chance to be a part of a fantastic organization. Receiving this scholarship has given me a wonderful story to share about the Personal and Intellectual Growth that is fostered through my involvement in Pi Beta Phi.” 

- Mallory Sublette, Alabama Beta, 2024 – 2025 recipient of the Clara Brownlee Hutchinson Scholarship 

“Pi Beta Phi has had the biggest impact on my own leadership development over these past 25 years. Thank you to all my fellow sisters and friends who support the Foundation.”

- Allison Harvey Griffin, Virginia Theta

“My dearest friends and sisters have shown up in ways I could never have imagined, and my gratitude to them and the sisterhood we share is a testament to the enduring bonds of Pi Beta Phi that last well beyond our years in college. I am so humbled by the love and support my family has received from my sisters and the Foundation—our sisters are real-life angels.”

- Katelyn O’Riordan Mayer, Colorado Alpha, recipient of the Emma Harper Turner Fund Disaster Relief Grant after her and her family lost their home in the Maui wildfires in 2023
