Establishing a Scholarship
Establishing a scholarship through the Alpha Sigma Tau Foundation is empowering the future.
Your generosity eases financial burdens, opens doors to new opportunities, and empowers generations of Sisters to pursue their dreams.
Establishing a scholarship allows you to:
- Leave a meaningful legacy – your scholarship will support Alpha Sigma Taus for generations
- Honor a loved one – recognize a family member, mentor, or important Sister
- Strengthen Alpha Sigma Tau’s position as a premier organization for high-achieving women
- Ensure Alpha Sigma Tau is financially accessible for future generations

How you can establish a scholarship with the Alpha Sigma Tau Foundation
You will work with the Alpha Sigma Tau Foundation to create a scholarship that aligns with your values and educational goals. Whether you wish to support a specific chapter or academic program, honor an individual, or provide opportunities for specific demographics of students, we’ll help craft a fund that reflects your vision.
A permanently endowed scholarship begins at $25,000 and can be funded through:
- An outright gift or pledge fulfilled at one time or up to five years
- Charitable contributions from an IRA (for donors 70 ½ and older)
- A planned gift or combination of options
Each year, your scholarship will be awarded to students and provide them with the financial support they need to achieve their dreams.
