Get Involved

There are many ways elders can remain engaged with Zeta Psi after graduation. Please take a look at the categories below and fill out the attached form; we’ll get back to you shortly regarding open volunteer opportunities!

Committee Descriptions

Awards Committee

The Awards Committee aims to recognize brothers and chapters for their accomplishments that better their chapters, their schools, the Fraternity, and their communities.

Chapter Development Committee

The Chapter Development Committee identifies universities where a Zeta Psi chapter could thrive, works to establish them, and assists new or struggling chapters to increase the number of healthy chapters in our circle.

Communications Committee

Elder Engagement Committee

Elder Engagement works to create & maintain communities across the world that connect Zetes after graduation – for social & networking purposes in support of chapter development & expansion as well as lifelong engagement.

Finance Committee

The Finance Committee shall oversee the creation and submission of the annual budget for both the Foundation and the Fraternity; the administration, conservation and investment of all general funds, trusts, and endowments of the Foundation and Fraternity; and for the supervision and oversight of the financial affairs and transactions of the Foundation and Fraternity.

Fundraising Committee (& Lane Descriptions)

A joint committee, assigning volunteers to assist with each of the “lanes” or priority areas for fundraising. An interest in promoting Zeta Psi to its members is the key need for this committee, but not being afraid of “fundraising” helps too. There are a variety of fundraising priorities, so experience can come in many forms.

    • Annual Fund – The backbone of the fundraising efforts, volunteers can be used to assist with content of messages, and assisting with promotion on social media.
    • Major Gifts – A key focus of this lane is acting as an ambassador for stewarding major donors, but help is also needed for donor identification, research, and solicitation.
    • Zete4Life – A younger Elder who can work with Elder Chapters to promote the monthly giving program that is collaborative with the Elder Chapter.
    • 1847 Pledge Challenge – Volunteers can be helpful to reach out to specific chapters to answer questions, provide updates, and encourage participation in our annual “challenge” event.
    • Convention/Big Brother-Little Brother Scholarships – Networking with local (to the convention) Elders to underwrite aspects of the convention, and to solicit support from past convention attendees for BB/LB Scholarships.
    • Heritage Society – People with links to the planned giving environment would be helpful, to prepare communication pieces to promote the concepts of planned giving (in person and/or in print).

Governance Committee

The governance committee is generally responsible for reviewing the governance structures and practices of the organization and reporting its findings and recommendations to the board.

Investment Committee

The investment committee is the liaison with our investment manager. Duties include making sure the investments are managed prudently.

Mentorship Committee
