Annual Report for the Period October 1, 2011 thru September 30, 2012 The mission of the Theta Phi Alpha Foundation is to fund scholarships and grants, philanthropic endeavors, and educational programming with a focus on developing women’s leadership skills. Letter from the Chairman Dear Sisters, The Theta Phi Alpha Foundation accomplished a great deal during the 2011-2012 fiscal year. The nine positions on the Board were fully staffed for the entire year. Three Directors fulfilled their commitment to the Foundation and chose to step down at the end of their term which coincided with the end of the fiscal year. We wish to recognize and thank these women for their service to the Foundation—Patricia Rankin Marmaduke, Σ; Monica Lerma, ΓΖ; and Michelle Short Porter, ΑΝ. The Board welcomes three new Directors—Karen J. Fisher, ΑΝ; Rebecca Dixon McLaren, ΑΜ; and Leslie Ervin Trahant, ΑΒ. (Note: Since the end of the fiscal year and the publishing of this report, two Directors have resigned—Christina Kay O’Brien, Κ; and Christine Labbate, ΓΜ. Those positions are currently open. The Board also thanks these women for their service.) 2 At the Centennial Convention held in Ann Arbor, Michigan, the Foundation awarded 12 scholarships—including our first ever $2,000 scholarship—presenting a total of $13,000 in scholarships. In addition, a check for $6,000 was presented to Glenmary Home Missioners to support Camp Friendship and a check for $5,000 was presented to the Elizabeth Smart Foundation in honor of our Siena Medalist. Where Did the Money Come From? 4 The Foundation provided grants in 2012 for two collegians to attend the UIFI leadership conference. Centennial Society 6 Foundation Donors 6-8 In this report:: What Did We Do With the Money? Twenty-three alumnae associations, chapters, groups, and individuals fulfilled their commitment to donate $1,000 or more to the Centennial Society. These monies were used to provide the $2,000 scholarship at Convention as well as to fund Convention programming. The future of the Centennial Society is under review by the Board. Additional information will be coming soon. Two additional endowed funds were fully funded during this fiscal year—the Megan V. Beck Scholarship Fund and the Dr. Mari Ann Callais Leadership Endowment. These funds will continue to provide scholarships and leadership opportunities to sisters into the future. The Directors want to thank all those Fraternity members and friends of Theta Phi Alpha who have supported the Foundation so generously over the past year. We will continue to use your contributions in the very best interests of Theta Phi Alpha. Fraternally, Karen J.

Centennial Convention/Programming $2,553 $5,055 Centennial Convention Scholarships Scholarships/Grants $6,900 $20,078 Siena Medalist - Elizabeth Smart Leadership Conference 2011 $15,360 $14,650 Camp Friendship/Glenmary Donation Administrative $6,000 $8,057 $2,674 Accounting (Special 3 Yr Charges) 12 Scholarships totaling $13,000 UIFI Leadership Conference Grants 2 Grants totaling $1,650 Camp Friendship $6,000 Centennial Convention/ Programming $20,078 Elizabeth Smart—2012 Siena Medal Recipient The abduction of Elizabeth Smart was one of the most followed child abduction cases of our time. Elizabeth was abducted on June 5, 2002 and her captors had controlled her by threatening to kill her and her family if she tried to escape. Fortunately, the police safely returned Elizabeth back to her family on March 12, 2003, after being held prisoner for nine months. Through this traumatic experience Elizabeth has become an advocate for change related to child abduction, recovery programs and National legislation. Elizabeth triumphantly testified before her captor and the world about the very private nightmare she suffered during her abduction, which lead to conviction. Elizabeth is currently involved in the “Elizabeth Smart Foundation”, and she has helped promote The National AMBER Alert, The Adam Walsh Child Protection & Safety Act and other safety legislation to help prevent abductions. Elizabeth is also a News Correspondent for ABC News. Elizabeth’s abduction and recovery has motivated and continues to motivate parents, law enforcement and leaders worldwide to focus on children’s safety. Emphasizing the vigilance of every day people in finding missing children and the belief that there is always hope and we can never stop searching for each and every missing child. Two years ago, Elizabeth worked with the Department of Justice and four other recovered young adults in creating a survivors guide, entitled – “You're Not Alone: The Journey From Abduction to Empowerment.” This guide is meant to encourage children who have gone through similar experiences to not give up and know that there is life after tragic events. Elizabeth’s example and life now is a daily demonstration that there really is life after a tragic event. She travels and speaks about not only her story, but also topics such as overcoming extreme adversity and not allowing your past to dictate your life's future. Elizabeth is studying music at Brigham Young University with an emphasis on harp performance. Elizabeth Smart received the 2012 Siena Medal at the Centennial Convention held in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
