Our Crowdfunding Groups
The NPHC Plaza has been brought to life and it would not have been possible without the support of alumni, donors and friends! There is still the chance to engage, empower, inspire and support this project, as well as the National Pan-Hellenic Council by purchasing your commemorative brick below. The fourth installation of engraved bricks will occur later in 2025. The deadline to purchase bricks for the fourth installation is May 31, 2025.
If you purchased a brick before April 30, 2024, your brick will be installed in the summer/fall of 2024.
