Support AGO

Alpha Gamma Omega is supported by two separate organizations — AGO Ministries and AGO Fraternity. Each serves a different purpose, and each has its own giving fund. Here's how to decide where your gift fits best.

AGO Ministries

Tax-deductible · 501(c)(3)

AGO Ministries provides the spiritual infrastructure behind AGO. Your gift supports the ministry professionals who come alongside our student-led chapters.

  • Ministry Consultants
  • Leadership & ministry training
  • Mission trip & outreach grants

AGO Fraternity Support Fund

Not tax-deductible

The AGO Fraternity Support Fund (formerly known as Alumni Dues) supports AGO operations — things like expansion, alumni networking, and conferences, not ministry-related support.

  • Expansion to new campuses
  • Alumni networking
  • Conferences & fraternity events

Want to support your home chapter specifically?

Chapter Excellence Funds are tax-deductible contributions through AGO Ministries that let you designate your gift to a specific chapter — funding Ministry Consultant oversight, leadership & ministry training, and outreach grants.

Our goal is $1,000/month ($12,000/year) per chapter — that's just 20 people giving $50/month.

About AGO Ministries

Alpha Gamma Omega Fraternity is student-led and student-run — the brothers themselves manage their chapters. But the fraternity's long-term spiritual health requires more than student leadership alone. That's where AGO Ministries comes in.

AGO Ministries is a separate 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. It doesn't run the fraternity's day-to-day operations. Instead, it provides the spiritual infrastructure, trained ministry professionals, and financial resources that help each chapter be a powerful light for Christ on their campus.

Your contributions directly fund:

  • Regional Advisors — trained ministers who provide spiritual mentorship, leadership coaching, and facilitate retreats and training events
  • Christ-centered leadership development — national retreats, officer trainings, and equipping members to lead with integrity and faith
  • Scholarships & financial assistance — ensuring cost is never a barrier to participation in AGO's discipleship community
  • Ministry grants — short-term mission trips, evangelism outreach, and campus ministry efforts
  • Ministry operations & leadership team — alumni engagement, fundraising, administration, and coordination

All contributions to AGO Ministries are tax-deductible.

About the AGO Fraternity Support Fund

The AGO Fraternity Support Fund goes directly to Alpha Gamma Omega Fraternity — not to the 501(c)(3). These contributions support the operational and strategic priorities that keep AGO thriving and growing on college campuses across the country.

Your support funds three key areas:

  • Expansion — starting new AGO chapters on college campuses, including start-up costs and establishing a financial foundation
  • National conferences — bringing AGO leaders together for training, fellowship, and strategic planning
  • Specific trainings — equipping chapter officers and members with practical skills and tools to lead well

Contributions to the AGO Fraternity Support Fund are not tax-deductible.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where does my money go?

If you give to AGO Ministries, your gift might fund:

  • A Regional Advisor traveling to a chapter for a weekend leadership retreat
  • A scholarship for a student who couldn't afford membership
  • A mission trip grant for brothers doing summer outreach
  • The leadership team coordinating alumni engagement and training events nationwide

If you give to the AGO Fraternity Support Fund, your gift might fund:

  • Start-up costs for a new chapter at a campus where men are ready to build AGO
  • A national conference bringing chapter leaders together from across the country
  • Hands-on training for a new officer learning to lead his brothers

If you give to a Chapter Excellence Fund, your gift is designated to a specific AGO chapter and supports that chapter's Regional Advisor oversight, leadership training, outreach grants, and membership scholarships. These contributions go through AGO Ministries and are tax-deductible.

Are my contributions tax-deductible?
Contributions to AGO Ministries — including Chapter Excellence Funds — are tax-deductible under our 501(c)(3) status (Tax ID: 56-2458850). Contributions to the AGO Fraternity Support Fund are not tax-deductible because Alpha Gamma Omega Fraternity is not a 501(c)(3).

What happened to Alumni Dues?
In 2023, AGO moved away from "Alumni Dues." We believe "Fraternity for Eternity" means you do not need to contribute financially to remain in good standing as an AGO alumnus. We now invite alumni to support AGO's mission through voluntary donations — either to AGO Ministries (tax-deductible) or to the AGO Fraternity Support Fund (not tax-deductible).

Who should I contact if I have additional questions?
