My name is Thomas Awad, and I am the House Manager at McCormick Hall. I hail from Nashville, TN, and the history of men from my hometown and high school joining Kappa Sigma is a large part of why I am in the house today. Seeing brothers of years past and being reminded of those that stood in our place and resided in our rooms prior to ourselves adds a special component of togetherness to the fraternity experience. Currently, our walls possess no composites or brotherhood images of any sort, but we can change that. Vantine Greek Composites is the company that has taken our chapter photographs for the past four decades (except 2012-13), and I have been in constant contact with a specialist there who is familiar with this type of restoration work. With the infusion of additional funds, we would be able to adorn the walls, stairwells, and hallways of McCormick Hall with the numerous faces of our brothers of the past. Our idea for this fundraising project centers around donations by year:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>For graduation years <strong>2003-2020<\/strong>, we are seeking a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.givecampus.com\/campaigns\/20158\/donations\/new\">class donation<\/a><\/strong> total of<strong> $2,500<\/strong> or greater to order and permanently hang their fourth-year composite.<\/li>\n<li>For graduation years <strong>1978-2002<\/strong>, we are seeking a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.givecampus.com\/campaigns\/20158\/donations\/new\">class donation<\/a><\/strong> total of <strong>$5,000<\/strong> or greater to order and permanently hang their fourth-year composite. This increase is due to the need to recreate the composite image using physical negatives from Vantine\u2019s archives.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>All surplus funds will go <strong>only<\/strong> toward the repair of the physical house and will be managed directly by the Bologna Society. All donors from classes who reach their thresholds will also receive a personal 15&#215;12 inch copy of their composite. Please join us on this first step to restoring McCormick Hall to its glory as the pride of Rugby Road and the backbone of our brotherhood.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right\"><em>Updated: March 2021<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>Online Giving and Pledges<\/h2>\n<p>Make an online gift or pledge now by using our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.givecampus.com\/campaigns\/20158\/donations\/new\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">secure donation form<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.givecampus.com\/campaigns\/20158\/donations\/new\">Donate or pledge online now<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Mail<\/h2>\n<p>Make the check out to the \u2018<strong>McCormick Hall Endowment<\/strong>\u2019 and add \u2018<strong>Allocation: 02892<\/strong>\u2019 in the memo.<\/p>\n<h3>Mail your check to:<\/h3>\n<p>UVA Fund Gift Processing Services<br \/>\nPO BOX 400314<br \/>\nCharlottesville, VA 22904-4314<\/p>\n<h3>Drop your check off to:<\/h3>\n<p>University of Virginia Alumni Association<br \/>\nUVA Fund Gift Processing Services<br \/>\n211 Emmet St South<br \/>\nCharlottesville, VA 22903<\/p>\n<h2>Phone<\/h2>\n<p>Make a gift over the phone by calling UVA Fund Gift Processing Services at 434-243-9060.<\/p>\n<h2>Stock and Wire\/ACH Transfer<\/h2>\n<p>Gifts of stocks or mutual funds can be sent electronically through your broker.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/uvafund.virginia.edu\/stock-wire-and-ach-transfer-instructions\/\">Stock and Wire\/ACH Transfer Instructions<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Additional Information<\/h2>\n<p>If you have questions, please use the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/uvafund.freshdesk.com\/support\/home\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">UVA Fund FreshDesk<\/a>\u00a0or visit the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/alumni.virginia.edu\/give\/make-a-gift\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">UVA Fund web page<\/a>\u00a0for more information.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/alumni.virginia.edu\/give\/make-a-gift\">More Giving Information<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello everyone.
