Excellence. The last letter of the FARMHOUSE acronym and the place we need to start, together.
This is a crucial time for the Fraternity and a collaborative approach is required for our shared challenges. That is why the FarmHouse Foundation has partnered with the International Fraternity to address the tough environment on college campuses today by raising unrestricted financial resources to fully fund grants to the Fraternity this fiscal year and into the future. Your unrestricted support makes this possible through the FarmHouse Excellence Fund.
Your investment in the FarmHouse Excellence Fund helps bridge the gap between the services the Fraternity provides through membership dues and the rising costs of values-based education and leadership experiences.
Contributions to the FarmHouse Excellence Fund also supports local volunteers, alumni engagement, a leading headquarters staff, operations and administration of the FarmHouse Foundation, as well as build endowment for future and emerging needs. Most importantly, your philanthropy transforms the future — of FarmHouse, all fraternities and the leaders our world so desperately needs.
Your Faith in your Fraternity and your unrestricted support will ensure Excellence in FarmHouse continues for the next generation.

- enable the Fraternity staff to work directly with each chapter;
- and, ultimately, help ensure the positive FarmHouse experience continues on.
