The Phi Kappa Psi Foundation works with young men who care about their academics, their chapters, and their communities by providing support through scholarships and programming. We are working to create healthier, active, brighter futures for Phi Psis.

In 2024, you were a vital part of this work. Because of your generosity four men had the opportunity to continue their educations, volunteer in their communities, and ready themselves for a purposeful life.

Dear Brother Stevens,

Joining Phi Psi, without a doubt, was the best decision I could have ever made. From the caring alumni to the many leadership/scholarship opportunities, I have learned and grown so much at the Cal Ep chapter.

I am incredibly honored to receive the Mark A. Stevens Scholarship. I am so appreciative of the Phi Psis that continue to support the brotherhood to this day. Thank you for supporting my education at UCLA and helping me achieve my goals.

In the Bond,

Mark Stevens USC ’81 Graduate Scholarship Recipient

While pursuing his PhD in higher education, Steve Flores worked on building intervention programs to ensure students get the resources they need to be successful not only academically and socially but also post-college through specialized career pathway counseling.

Dear Brother,

I did not know about fraternities until a few weeks into freshmen year. The idea of brotherhood stood out to me as a single child. Joining Phi Kappa Psi not only provided me with personal development and countless memories but also provided me with lifelong brothers that have helped me through many life transitions. Thank you for your generosity in making my scholarship possible.

Thanks to the support of brothers like you, our brotherhood is strong and extends far beyond our undergraduate years. Being selected as a recipient of this scholarship is an immense honor and a significant milestone in my academic journey.

Thank you once again for your support and investment in my future. I look forward to making the best of this opportunity and hope to one day give back to the Phi Psi Foundation to support future scholars as you have supported me.

Amici,

Steve Flores CSULB ’10

Dear Brother Stevens,

I have dreamed of becoming a doctor ever since I was six years old. Today I am a second-year medical student at the University of Toledo College of Medicine pursuing that dream I would like to become a pediatric anesthesiologist and to support children and their families undergoing stressful surgeries. Your generosity means the world to me.

I truly believe in the Phi Kappa Psi maxim The Great Joy of Serving Others. Thank you for helping me. I cannot pay it forward and help so many more people too.

Best regards,
