Our inaugural House of Alpha Week was one for the books, and we owe it all to YOU!
Brothers and friends, thank you for tuning in and engaging with us during each webinar and event throughout the week! We hope you enjoyed them as much as we did. Brothers, thank you for coming back to the House, and remember; it is never too late. The House of Alpha is not the same without all of our Brothers in it. Thank you for making House of Alpha Week such a major success!
Until next year, A-Phi, ‘06!

The formation of the Council coincides with a recent commitment by the board of directors that the Foundation will manage operating budgets for the next two fiscal years of at least 10% of net assets; namely, twice the minimum amount required by law. The resulting increase in programmatic spend will provide a minimum of $500,000 in funding under the auspice of the newly forming council. It is the hope of NC IDEA that other organizations, companies, and individuals may wish to likewise add funding to these activities. Learn more about NC IDEA here.
