Save the Sigma Nu House!!
Donation protected
For the 1,400+ men who have lived there and the thousands of other men and women who spent many many nights there, the Sigma Nu house at 1 Fair Street in Bethany, WV, is in every sense of the word - home. No matter where they've gone or what they've gone through since Bethany, they've known that Sigma Nu will always be there for them.
Unfortunately, that house that so many of us call home is in jeopardy. The house that shares so many of our best memories - that first drink, that first college party, that first moment you realized you had a friend for life, that time you've been happier than any other time in your life - needs you to be there for it like it was there for you.
This year, the alumni of the Epsilon chapter of Sigma Nu and Bethany College made the difficult decision to shut down the house and recolonize the chapter at Bethany College. This difficult decision was made due to to financial status of the chapter and the culture that existed at the house.
With the house now closed, we must now begin the journey toward recolonization. This will involve paying off the mortgage, renovating the house, and preparing it for a new group of brothers to lead the Epsilon chapter's next 1,400 brothers. The alumni chapter will be working closely with the College and Greek System at Bethany to ensure longevity and a thriving Greek system at Bethany for years to come.
We need your help to do this. Maybe you're a brother. Maybe you're a Bethany alumni with fond memories of the house. Maybe you're the wife of a brother who tells you stories of his times at the house. Maybe you're a friend of the brothers who spent a lot of time there. Whoever you are, we need your help to do this.

Whatever your reason, know that your donation will help preserve something much more than a house - it will preserve what thousands of people still do and will always call home.
