The Alpha Lambda Delta Perpetual Fellowship Fund

Investing in the Future of Student Success
Since 1940, the Alpha Lambda Delta Perpetual Fellowship Fund (PFF) has provided lasting financial support for scholarships and fellowships awarded to outstanding Alpha Lambda Delta members. Gifts to the PFF are invested to preserve the principal, while a portion of the investment earnings is used each year to fund student awards, ensuring that donor support benefits generations of students.

The Perpetual Fellowship Fund supports Alpha Lambda Delta's scholarship and fellowship programs, including:

• Graduate Fellowships

• Stemler Study Abroad Scholarships

Recipients are selected through a competitive application process by committees appointed by the Alpha Lambda Delta Board of Directors.

Named Scholarship and Fellowship Opportunities
A named scholarship or fellowship provides a meaningful opportunity to honor an individual, family, organization, or other designation while creating a lasting legacy of support for Alpha Lambda Delta students.

A minimum commitment of $60,000 is required to establish a named scholarship or fellowship within the Perpetual Fellowship Fund. Gifts may be made as a single contribution or fulfilled through a pledge over a period of up to five years.

A written gift agreement is required for all named scholarships and fellowships, and all naming requests are subject to approval by the Alpha Lambda Delta Board of Directors.

Administration
The Executive Director is responsible for administering the Perpetual Fellowship Fund in accordance with Board policies and applicable laws and regulations.

Named scholarships and fellowships shall bear only the names of individuals or organizations whose character, integrity, and values are consistent with the mission of Alpha Lambda Delta. If circumstances arise that could compromise the Society's reputation or public trust, the Board of Directors reserves the right to remove or modify a naming designation.
