Beta Alpha Outdoor Furniture Fundraiser
In coordination with the Beta Alpha Education Foundation (BAEF), the Beta Alpha Alumni Association (BAAA) is organizing this fundraiser to replace the deteriorating outdoor furniture on our chapter house veranda. This space has long served as a meaningful extension of the chapter house—where brothers connect, study, and create lasting memories. Now, it's time to update it with durable, comfortable furniture that will serve both active members and alumni for years to come.
Your support brings us closer to transforming the veranda into a versatile, welcoming environment—ideal for studying, casual conversations, alumni gatherings, or simply enjoying the outdoors and our shared brotherhood. Thank you for considering a gift to help us renew this important space.
If you have any questions at all, please reach out to BAAA via email at: betaalphaalumni1903@gmail.com
