Each alumni Brother has a unique way to contribute to Phi Delta Chi. Whether you are willing to dedicate 2 hours per year or 2 hours per day, there are opportunities for you to stay engaged with the Fraternity. Below are just some ideas. Please contact your Regional Director of Alumni Affairs or the Grand Vice President for Alumni Affairs (gvpaa@phideltachi.org) for more information about getting involved!
