How to Give to or Request Funding from the AKL Education Foundation
Updated
The AKL Education Foundation accepts gifts through several named channels and offers scholarships, grants, and a chapter restricted fund grant request process. The site lists four ways to give — supporting your fraternity, supporting your chapter, planned giving, and scholarships & grants — plus a Chapter Restricted Fund Grant Request. Donation and member sign-in links appear on the site. The exact eligibility rules, deadlines, and award amounts are not stated in the available page content, so confirm those with the Foundation before applying or giving.
Ways to Give
The Foundation groups giving options under a "Ways to Give" section with these entries:
- Supporting Your Fraternity — general giving to the Foundation
- Supporting Your Chapter — directed to a specific chapter
- Planned Giving — legacy or estate-type gifts
- Scholarships & Grants — giving tied to scholarship and grant funds
A Donate to AKL link and a Sign In: MYAKL link are provided on the site. The page content does not specify payment platforms, minimum gift amounts, or whether any giving option requires a login, so treat those as unconfirmed until you check the live pages.
Scholarships and Grants
Scholarships & Grants is listed both as a giving category and as a Foundation program area. The available content does not describe award amounts, eligibility criteria, application windows, or selection process. If you are applying, expect to confirm those details directly through the Foundation rather than from the site's navigation labels alone.
Chapter Restricted Fund Grant Request
The Foundation provides a Chapter Restricted Fund Grant Request entry. This is the route for a chapter seeking funds from a restricted fund. The page content does not state who may submit, what the funds can cover, or the review timeline — verify these before submitting.

What to Confirm Before Acting
Because the site content does not include amounts, deadlines, or eligibility rules, check the following with the Foundation or on the linked pages:
- Current gift designations and any restrictions
- Scholarship and grant eligibility, deadlines, and required materials
- Chapter restricted fund grant criteria and submission process
- Whether any form or portal requires a MYAKL sign-in
