Alpha XI Delta Foundation of Texas Inc

About

THE FOUNDATION WAS ORIGINALLY SET UP TO LEND MONEY TO TEXAS CHAPTERS FOR THEIR CHAPTER HOUSING. WITH THE INTEREST THAT WAS TO BE CHARGED,THE MONEY WOULD IN TURN BE GIVEN ANNUALLY AS SCHOLARSHIPS TO ANY WOMAN ENROLLED IN TEXAS COLLEGE OR UNIVERSITY WHERE THERE WAS AN ALPHA XI DELTA CHAPTER.THAT WOMAN DID NOT HAVE TO BE AFFILIATED WITH ANY SORORITY. THE MONEY WAS TO BE RISK FREE, WHICH OVER THE YEARS MEANT LESS INTEREST & THE COLLEGE CHAPTERS DID NOT WANT TO BORROW MONEY - THEY WANTED IT TO BE DONATED - WHICH WE COULDN'T DO. WITH VERY LITTLE INCOME EARNED, SCHOLARSHIPS WERE LIMITED. WE BEGAN WAITING SEVERAL YEARS AND ACCUMULATING MORE INCOME TO DISPERSE. WE RARELY RECEIVED APPLICATIONS BECAUSE THE AMOUNTS WERE SMALL AND THE COMMENTS WERE THAT IT WOULD MESS UP THEIR FINANCIAL AID PACKAGE. WITH COVID-19 PANDEMIC, THE OFFICERS DECIDED TO GIVE SIX LARGER SCHOLARSHIPS - STILL NOT WHAT WE EXPECTED. THERE WAS A SMALL AMOUNT LEFTOVER AND IT WAS THAT THAT THIS WOULD BE GIVEN TO THE ALPHA XI DELTA NATIONAL FOUNDATION. THIS WAS UNANIMOUSLY AGREED UPON BY ALL OFFICERS OF THE FOUNDATION.
