Phoenix is home to nearly 2,800 SAE alumni from over 221 different chapters. In 2015, an energetic group of alumni lead by Joe Laux (AZ Beta), Tom Healy (OH Gamma), Bill Weinke (TX Alpha), Todd Stingley (NE Lambda Pi), Greg Gillis (NE Lambda Pi), Mike Donahoe (OK Kappa) and Phil Glasscock (WY Alpha) met and in 2017 formed SAE-Phoenix Alumni, Inc., an Arizona non-profit corporation, as an area alumni association for brothers residing in metropolitan Phoenix. Today, our Alumni Association controls nearly $200,000 in investments which we use for scholarships and awards locally. Due to this financial management, there are no alumni dues. All of our events operate on a break-even basis with fees only charged for the event cost.

Our Beginning

The SAE National Staff called upon SAE-Phoenix Alumni, Inc. to assist in the re-colonization efforts of Arizona State University (Arizona Beta) after it was closed in 2013. Local alumni were instrumental in working with the colony starting in the spring, 2017 through Arizona Beta’s rechartering in February 2019.

Our Mission

The purpose of SAE-Phoenix Alumni, Inc. is to preserve and foster the ideals and legacy of Sigma Alpha Epsilon Fraternity among initiated brothers, both active and alumni, living in Arizona.  Our purpose is accomplished by striving to live according to the True Gentleman, by creating events and opportunities for brothers to socialize and network, by engaging in philanthropy and community involvement, by serving as mentors and friends to other SAE’s living in Arizona and by establishing and supporting active SAE Chapters at Arizona Colleges and Universities. 

 

Our Motto

Get Involved

There are no alumni membership fees to join SAE-Phoenix Alumni, Inc. except for the actual cost of an event. Our events are planned through the year in around Phoenix to maximize your attendance. Like the story of the Phoenix rising out of the ashes, we hope you’ll reignite your flame and join us for brotherhood.
