Foundation Donation Information
Pi Beta Phi Foundation has partnered with memberplanet to provide a turn-key solution for your online Foundation Donation fundraising. At your request, memberplanet will set up your chapter with a fully branded and approved Foundation donation site - giving your chapter the tool you need to raise Foundation donations online and increase philanthropy engagement. And no more collecting checks! Online donations are deposited directly to the Foundation and soft-credited to your chapter. While memberplant charges a credit/debit card processing fee for each gift, the Foundation will not transfer that expense to your chapter. Donors will be asked to consider adding 3% to their donation to help offset this cost.
And, and since the Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, all donations are tax-deductible for your donors as allowed by law!
Using memberplanet, your chapter will be able to designate your fundraising to one of the following Foundation funds by completing the online survey below. This survey creates the FT-1 form required for these gifts.
Funds: Friendship Fund, The Literacy Fund, a split between the Friendship Fund and The Literacy Fund or The Literacy Fund with a Local Impact Grant.

Fund Information
Friendship Fund (unrestricted fund) - The Friendship Fund is the primary way the Foundation fulfills its mission and ensures the future of the Pi Beta Phi sisterhood. Gifts to the Friendship Fund impact individual members of Pi Beta Phi, the Fraternity and the communities which we all serve. Everything Pi Beta Phi Foundation does is supported with Friendship Fund gifts, wholly or in part, with the exception of chapter-specific housing programs.
The Literacy Fund - The Literacy Fund at Pi Beta Phi Foundation supports Pi Beta Phi reading and literacy initiatives, including but not limited to Read > Lead > Achieve® initiatives, Champions are Readers®, Fraternity Day of Service Signature Events, FDS 500, Pi Phi’s First Book® and Barbara Bush Foundation for Family Literacy partnerships.

In addition, the Foundation offers Local Impact Grants to chapters and alumnae club to support local 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations with literacy programs. Chapters may nominate 25 percent of their gift to The Literacy Fund for a local 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization (or registered Canadian charity) with a literacy program. That 25 percent will then be matched by the Foundation, dollar for dollar.
