Fundraising Update

(Chapter Fund, CA Gamma Foundation & Brick Campaign)

Phi Alpha to the Brothers who have contributed financially to the CA Gamma SAE Chapter. These donations are supporting the following:

• The active Chapter directly
• The California Gamma Foundation, and
• The “Brick Campaign” (57 sold to date).

A.) Chapter Fund

Checks for the Chapter operations should be made out to the CA Gamma SAE Chapter, and sent to our accounting firm for the Chapter. The address is:

CA Gamma SAE Chapter
c/o Bresee-Warner
10960 Wilshire Blvd., Suite 1510
Los Angeles, CA 90024

Please Note: Chapter donations are NOT tax deductible, as they do not fall within the criteria for a 501C3 donation. The California Gamma Foundation is a 501c3 headed by Brother Jason Sabaugh and is separate from Chapter donations (see Foundation info below).

B.) The California Gamma Foundation

The CA Gamma Foundation is a certified 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, which was created to benefit the members of the house. To date, over $55,000 has been donated by alumni. The Foundation is dedicated to the education and career advancement of the active brothers. For donations to the California Gamma Foundation, click here to download the forms.

C.) Brick Campaign

The CA Gamma Foundation is offering CA Gamma Alumni an exclusive opportunity to cement their legacy at the SAE house by purchasing a commemorative donor brick for $500, to be installed next summer on the brick wall facing the basketball court (see rendering below). Future game days will be extra special when you visit the house to see your name, now eternalized, at 833 West 28th St. with friends, family, and future generations of SAE’s. 57 have been sold to date as well as some named items.
