Questions and Answers

Below you will find answers to many common questions about FIVE Campaign.

What is the One of Jackson's Men program?

The "One of Jackson’s Men" Program is the Endowment Fund’s most popular and innovative giving recognition program. The program, which started in 1989, was named in honor of the most important Brother in Kappa Sigma's history, Stephen Alonzo Jackson. A percentage of all donations received to this program will go to your chapter scholarship fund. The seven-tier program honors contributors committing to gifts between $1,000 and $50,000, payable at once or over time. Upon completion of the pledge, each of Jackson’s Men receives a handsome, individually numbered pin that represents his unique emulation of Jackson’s lifelong devotion to Kappa Sigma.
