Hello Central Ohio Sigma Chi Alumni,
Another year passes, and the environment of the world is ever-changing, but one thing
that will remain constant is Sigma Chi Derby Days in April. As most of you know, Derby Days
is a week-long philanthropy week in which Sigma Chi chapters across the country participate to
benefit the Huntsman Cancer Foundation (HCF). HCF is a non-profit organization that supports
the research of Cancer variations at the Huntsman Cancer Institute in Salt Lake City, Utah. 100%
of the donations made to HCF go directly to cancer research, and the Huntsman Cancer Institute
works hand in hand with other major cancer research institutions across the World, including the
Wexner Medical Center in Columbus. In 2015, the Sigma Chi International Fraternity pledged to
donate $11 Million to HCF, and in 2019 we pledged an additional $20 million extending that
number to $31 million, making it the largest philanthropic commitment ever by a fraternity
Last year, with the help of generous Alumni, local business owners, our Greek
community, and campus peers, we raised over $27,000. This year the Alpha Gamma Chapter has
decided to set a new standard for our donation goal and has set that goal at $100,000. Along with
that new standard, we have decided on new events for Derby Days this year, including a 2023
Alumni Golf Outing at The Golf Club of Dublin on April 16th. We are hoping for at least 80
alumni to join us. The outing will cost $120 to play in. The outing will include a banquet before
golf including lunch, a full round of golf, and over $1,000 in prizes. Feel free to contact Derby
Days Chairman James Peel (216-630-9194) to reserve your spot. In addition to alumni support
we are also searching for business support. If anyone has connections to any business interested
in sponsoring Derby Days week and has the option to advertise at our events, please contact
Derby Days Chairman Alex Waldron (440-915-1053).
To raise more awareness and create momentum for our donation campaign, we are opening the donation portal now before Derby Days begin. Keeping in mind that all donations are tax-deductible, we encourage you to donate. Attached below is more information about how to donate to the Huntsman Cancer Institute for the Alpha Gamma chapter. This year, we aim to be in the upper echelon of chapters donating to the Huntsman Cancer Foundation while being able to reconnect with alumni over a week of fun events. Together, brothers, we can be the generation to end cancer.
In Hoc,
The 2023 Derby Day Chairmen of The Alpha Gamma Chapter
