PanHellenic Honors Society  

A special distinction is granted to each scholarship award recipient in addition to their monetary award.  All recipients are automatically inducted into the PanHellenic Honors Society.  This is a network of distinguished individuals, whose purpose is to foster the spirit of Hellenic culture and ideals, create enthusiasm for scholarship, stimulate a desire to render service, sustain the Foundations' goals and objectives, promote leadership, and develop character.  

 

2012 Awards Gala

The Awards Gala will take place in June 2012 at a Chicago venue to be announced at a later date.  The Foundation has chosen to move the date from its typical Fall ceremony in order to make it more convenient for the Award Recipients and Honors Society members to attend.  All scholarship recipients are expected to attend what promises to be an unforgettable evening for themselves and their families.
