Participant Testimonies

High Alpha Summit

High Alpha Summit is our premier leadership event. Aimed at the Chapter President (High Alpha), it offers an unrivalled opportunity to build competence and forge connections. Held in Indianapolis in early January, the event encourages attendees to develop and foster the skills and support systems needed to improve their leadership and the functioning of their Chapter.

By the end of the conference, participants were able to forge connections across the High Zeta; write, execute, and support a plan that drives Chapter operations; and understand how to utilize Ideal Man to onboard Associate Members and Stead Leadership College to train core High Zeta Officers.

Watch the video to hear personal testimonies from 2025 High Alpha Summit attendees.

Why I Give

Giving back has been important to John since he was a young child. John remembers his mother volunteering to raise donations for Red Cross, saying, “that kind of thing affected me my entire life. We have a responsibility to help others.” John’s dedication has shaped countless lives and will continue inspiring future Lambda Chi’s thanks to his gift.

Giving back to Lambda Chi Alpha became Chuck’s vehicle for serving others. Through his work on the Educational Foundation board, Chuck grew to appreciate the fraternity’s ever-growing message focused on bettering one’s communities. He hopes his legacy inspires others to lead lives of service for centuries to come.

Past Foundation Board Member; Foundation Ambassador

“I joined the Mason Circle to uphold the beliefs every Lambda Chi should embrace. The belief in encouraging our actives and alumni to support our greater mission of developing better men. The story of the Bridge Builder reminds us of the vital moral lesson of paying it forward to the brothers who come after us and beyond. To truly embody our ideals, we must support one another, and I believe the Educational Foundation plays a crucial role in that effort.”

Brother Nicholas A. Damiano is a proud volunteer with the Lambda Chi Alpha Educational Foundation and is the 2025 Founders’ Day Challenge Chairman. His passion for our mission stems from generations of Brothers creating opportunities for him. His late uncle, Brother J.P. Ottino III, taught him that, no matter what in life, to pay it forward. In 2024, he established the Nicholas A. Damiano Conference Accessibility Scholarship.
