86 CLUB
Cement your lifelong commitment to Sigma Lambda Beta by contributing joining our lifetime dues program.
What is the 86 Club?
The 86 Club was an initiative by the 2016-18 Executive Board of Directors that would help fulfill the goal of Alumni Support. The Founders and Alpha Classes' investments of $1,986 each, allowed the Fraternity to hire a Director of Donor Development. The Director of Donor Development was hired to help fund fraternity programs such as BetaCon and Leadership Institute. Their focus was to raise money for the Fraternity in hopes of not solely relying on undergraduate dues. This new income generated will help fund new staff positions in the future. For example, the Alumni Engagement Coordinator will be the dedicated staff member for Alumni, Alumni Networks, and Alumni Associations. The 86 Club will be the catalyst that allows our Alumni membership to grow and thrive, while at the same time helping future generations of undergraduate Brothers in their programs and events.
The 86 Club does come with tangible perks and gifts, along with the intrinsic value of knowing that your gift helped the fraternity get to the next level. The 86 Club consists of a class each year of its existence, beginning with the Founder's Class. A Brother who contributes the full amount of $1,986 by April 4th will be considered a member of that year's class.
