What is the Founders' Day Challenge?
The Founders' Day Challenge (FDC) is a peer-to-peer online fundraising campaign created to raise money for the Chapter Leadership Funds (these funds help chapters cover the cost of national Fraternity events, professional development events and more) and the Deltasig Fund (greatest needs) while celebrating Founders' Day. Also in 2025, we also celebrated 50 years of women initiated into Delta Sigma Pi. 
 
What are Chapter Leadership Funds?
Through Chapter Leadership Funds (CLFs), chapters can request grants to defray the direct cost of LEAD Provincial Conferences, LEAD Schools, LEAD Summits, Grand Chapter Congress and Presidents' Academy. Additionally, grants may be provided to cover costs associated with chapters or chapter members sponsoring or attending educational or professional/personal development speakers and/or workshops, conferences or similar events. Learn more about Chapter Leadership Funds at dsp.org/clf.

How can I prepare for the Founders' Day Challenge? 
Check out the Founders’ Day Challenge Toolkit and watch for more resources via email, social media and via dsp.org.

Start Fundraising: 
All collegiate chapters should register as a participant to start raising funds for your CLF.  Others can track the progress of money being raised toward each chapter's CLF – invite friends and family to join and raise money for your favorite Deltasig causes.
