Clara Bradley Burdette Society

Clara Bradley Burdette

Named after founder Clara Bradley Burdette, The Clara Bradley Burdette Society recognizes loyal Alpha Phi Foundation donors with a planned gift.

Clara was a philanthropist who funded a maternity wing at Pasadena Hospital in 1904. Her prime objective in life was developing better opportunities for women, and one of her personal mottos was to "live a life of purpose."

Clara is also known for coining the phrase, "As long as memory remains to me, I will remember Alpha Phi." These words speak to each of us, and they serve as a constant reminder that tomorrow's Fraternity depends on today's members.

Those who came before us paved the way for our strong, vibrant Alpha Phi. Now it's our turn to do the same.

It's never too early to think about planning your future gift to Alpha Phi Foundation. Many of these gifts benefit you in your lifetime, as well as provide future gifts for our Alpha Phi.

Members of the Clara Bradley Burdette Society receive the beautiful Silver and Bordeaux pin. This pin includes ten bordeaux stones representing the Original Ten and is designed in a knot to embody our eternal tie to Alpha Phi.

Please email plannedgiving@alphaphifoundation.org for more information or to notify Alpha Phi Foundation of your planned gift.
