Sigma Phi Epsilon raised $25,084 for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) in honor of their brother Nate Aldrich. 

Established in 1987, AFSP is a voluntary health organization that gives those affected by suicide a nationwide community empowered by research, education and advocacy. In addition to a donation to the AFSP, a portion of the proceeds will go toward a scholarship honoring Aldrich that will be awarded to a Truman student that embodies the principles he held close to his heart. 

The fraternity hosted a week-long charity competition, April 20-24, where campus nominees competed to be crowned the “SigEp Golden Heart.” Representatives from various campus organizations raised a combined total of $17,085, with members of Sigma Phi Epsilon raising the remaining $7,999. 

Donations will remain open until May 9 and can be made online at gofund.me/8f28c9ae2.
