This Stephen Alonzo Jackson Weekend of Giving, we're asking you to make a tax-deductible donation to support a cause near and dear to the Delta-Chi Chapter– the creation of a new Scholarship-Leadership Award named in honor of Brother Clayson R. Anderson. 100% of your gift, in the amount of $10.34, $50.34, $150.34, $340, $3,400, or $34,000, will help fund this special scholarship.
Our goal is to raise $50,000 to establish a permanent $2,000 annual Scholarship in Brother Anderson's name that will benefit a Delta-Chi Chapter Brother every year in perpetuity. In the event Delta-Chi does not reach the $50,000 threshold during the Weekend but reaches $25,000, it will automatically create a $1,000 annual Scholarship-Leadership Award. All amounts raised shy of $25K between or over $50K will be directed to the existing Chapter Scholarship Fund to benefit Delta-Chi undergraduates.
Clayson R. Anderson was a 2020 Initiate of the Delta-Chi Chapter at Mississippi State University. As a natural-born leader with an overwhelmingly sympathetic heart for others, Brother Anderson truly embodied the four pillars of Kappa Sigma and was an inspiration to his brothers. He was level II ritual proficient and consistently showcased an excellent number of service hours.
Originating from Sikeston, Missouri, Clayson was fascinated with the outdoors and submerged himself in all things wildlife. Growing up on a farm, he served as a member of Missouri 4-H. He was a proud Eagle Scout and also a multi-sport varsity athlete in high school. Clayson studied Agriculture Science at Mississippi State and was known for his deep connection with animals and nature, as well as his kind and welcoming personality. Brother Anderson embodied the true characteristics of a Kappa Sigma and showed others how to walk in the light of God. The Clayson R. Anderson Named Scholarship-Leadership Award will be given to an undergraduate member of the Delta-chi Chapter who shows the same leadership characteristics shown to us by Brother Anderson.
The Clayson R. Anderson Scholarship-Leadership Award will be given annually to a Delta-Chi undergraduate member who excels in scholarship, leadership, and community service, all of which reflect the example Brother Anderson has provided.
Now is the time to rally behind this historic initiative and honor the lasting legacy of Brother Clayson R. Anderson. Donate Now!
