Meet an Anchor Society Donor: Brandy VanLoo Beck

Brandy is a software engineer, has two cats, and serves as the Community Relations Advisor for the Delta Tau Chapter at Oakland University and as the Alumnae Vice President of Administration for the Detroit Metro Alumnae Chapter. She joined the Anchor Society in 2024, ten years after her first donation to the Foundation.

I give because..

During college, the Alpha Sigma Tau Foundation gave me a few different scholarships, which meant that I could graduate on time. Now, as an alumna member who has attended multiple national events, including three National Conventions and an Advisor Academy, I get to see all the work the Foundation funds to improve the lives of our members, both in the Sorority and in our personal lives. Alpha Sigma Tau has helped me grow in immeasurable ways, and I want to make sure the opportunities are there for those who come behind me.

Favorite Alpha Sigma Tau memory…

There are too many to choose from! The first one that comes to mind is during my first Convention, when the coalition from my chapter went to Waffle House. I famously drank my water without ice, but the water brought water without being prompted, so it naturally had ice. Once the waiter left, my chapter Sisters started scooping the ice out of my glass. It’s so small, but it showed me how much I was loved.

Anchor Society supporters, who give $1,899+ annually to our Anchor Fund, enable Alpha Sigma Tau to provide an exceptional membership and educational experience. Through the Giving Our All campaign, we aim to welcome 125 donors into this transformative community.
