Overview

Mission

Delta kappa epsilon strives to develop a culture and an expectation of undergraduate chapters who perform in the top tier of fraternities at their institutions, and a vibrant network of alumni who are motivated to stay involved with the fraternity after graduation. We will do this by providing our undergraduates with the leadership skills, and the operational resources they need to excel in today's greek environment, and by developing alumni networking programs which are relevant and engaging, and are beneficial to both alumni and undergraduates.

What it reported doing in 2024

Provided meals, housing and social programs for the local social fraternity members.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 100% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
