Fall 2024 Delta Upsilon Quarterly

Named Endowment Funds

Named endowment funds ensure a donor’s giving makes an impact forever. A minimum pledge of $25,000 is required to establish a named endowment fund, and the funds are subject to a 4% annual spend rate (based on the prior 12-quarter fund average). Alumni chapters can also establish a Chapter Education or Housing Account (CEA/CHA), which are not subject to the 4% spending policy and provide grants to chapters for educational needs.

New Named Endowment Funds

Thanks to the Ignite The Charge Campaign, several new named endowment funds were created in the 2023-2024 fiscal year. Below are new funds we wish to highlight. 

Stephen J. Henning Endowment Fund

Established by Stephen J. Henning, Nebraska ’85, to provide program scholarships to West Coast chapters (with a preference to new chapters). This fund will shift to providing resources to the Nebraska Chapter in the event they have a funding need.

Jeff Kreutz Regional Leadership Academy Endowment Fund

Established by Jeff Kreutz, Missouri ’99, to fund Missouri Chapter undergraduates to attend RLA. In the event Missouri does not send men to RLA in a given year, the annual draw from the fund will be used to provide Missouri undergraduates with scholarships to other educational programs.

Christopher L. & Benjamin L. Miller Scholarship Fund

Established by Christopher L. Miller, Miami ’90, and his son Benjamin L. Miller, Miami ’24, the Miller Scholarship Fund will provide educational program scholarships with preference for undergraduates from the Miami Chapter.

Ryan E. King Educational Program Fund

Thanks to the generosity of Sharon and Steve Rowley, Ohio ’65, the Ryan E. King Educational Program Fund is being established with a gift of $25,000, which is a portion of the Rowley’s full $137,500 campaign commitment. This fund honors Ryan, a member of Beta Theta Pi, for his interfraternal spirit and his leadership throughout the Ignite The Charge Campaign as a member of the DUEF staff. The fund will provide scholarships to the Undergraduate Interfraternity Institute and inspire young DUs to lead and serve their interfraternal communities.

Jon Shapiro Memorial Scholarship Fund

Established by Wisconsin alumni and the Shapiro family in memory of Jon Shapiro, Wisconsin ’11. The fund provides tuition scholarships to Wisconsin Chapter DU undergraduates.
