Abstract

As indicated by the title, this thesis is a study of fund raising in nonprofit fraternal organizations, involving gifts which are tax deductible, as well as gifts to funds which are not tax qualified. The procedure involved a questionnaire to two groups of fraternity alumni, one being a group of officers, while the other was sent to one thousand alumni members selected at random. Profiles of the two groups were developed on the basis of age, education, occupation, income level, service as a fraternity officer, participation in fraternity meetings and readership of the organization's journal. The report summarizes the financial giving habits of both groups to several areas within the fraternity and to the colleges where the members received their undergraduate degrees . The results are expected to prove helpful to executives of nonprofit organizations involved in the solicitation of financial contributions.
