It has been a year since over 300 Phis gathered in Charlottesville to celebrate the 150th anniversary of our founding at UVA. To date, the Phi 150th Anniversary Fund has received pledges in excess of $355,000 with over 85% of those pledges already received. Five Brothers have made $25,000 pledges and an additional 16 have pledged $5,000 or more! As mentioned at the gala, it is the organizing committee’s hope that all Brothers will make a gift that is meaningful to them at any level. The Phi House is at its best when we are all in it together.
As the capital improvements story and associated pictures point out, we have put your generous contributions to good use! However, there is still much more we would like to accomplish. At this point, we have three significant projects left on our ”to-do” list:
- Building a new, expanded front porch
- Updating the landscaping and hardscaping in both the front and back yards
- Paying off the balance of the variable rate mortgage at One University Circle
Thank you to everyone who has already made a gift, and we look forward to hearing from all of you as we continue forward with this ambitious effort. Please reach out to Mike Melley (Col ’92) at mikemelley@gmail.com to discuss further.
