FDS500 GRANTS

Through the FDS500 program, Pi Beta Phi annually awards grants to 100 First Book^® recipient groups nominated by Pi Phi chapters and alumnae clubs. The grants are used to purchase $1,000 worth of new books from First Book, then distributed to children in need.

Thank you to the chapters and clubs who nominated organizations to receive a 2020-2021 FDS500 grant! If the organization you nominated is selected to receive a grant, you will be notified by September 30.

Nominations for FDS500 grants are now closed, but will reopen in September 2021. If you have questions about the FDS500 program or Pi Pi Phi's Read > Lead > Achieve^® initiatives, please contact our Engagement Coordinator.
