Choose a fund.
Upsilon-Marsalek Chapter Education Fund
Nationally administered fund
Administered through the Sigma Pi Educational Foundation.
Administered by the Sigma Pi Educational Foundation, the Upsilon-Marsalek Chapter Education Fund supports scholarships and other qualified educational needs benefiting Upsilon Chapter and its members. The fund helps provide perpetual, pledge, memorial and service scholarships and may also support eligible educational improvements and approved loans benefiting the chapter.
Contributions are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law. To ensure an online gift benefits Upsilon Chapter, donors must select CEF – UCLA (UPSILON) – MARSALEK as the fund designation.
CEF gifts must be completed through the Sigma Pi Educational Foundation using the required Upsilon designation. The two payment routes must not be combined.

UAA-Funded Scholarships
Alumni Association fund
Administered directly by the Upsilon Alumni Association.
The Upsilon Alumni Association separately funds scholarships and awards recognizing academic achievement, fraternity service and commitment to the ideals of Sigma Pi. These include the William Meyer Award, Julien D’Avanzo Award and Robert Webster/Tim Howell Academic Scholarships.
These gifts are administered directly by the Upsilon Alumni Association and do not become part of the Upsilon-Marsalek Chapter Education Fund. Contributions made directly to the UAA for these scholarships are not tax-deductible.
UAA-funded contributions must be completed through the separate Upsilon Alumni Association giving pathway. The two payment routes must not be combined.
