Miami Alumni of Delta Upsilon Inc. is a Section (c)(7) corporation. Â Donations or dues paid to Section (c)(7) corporations are not tax-deductible.
DUEF
In August 2022, the Delta Upsilon Educational Foundation launched a new capital campaign with a target of raising $6 million. The funds will be used to expand our endowment and base of resources so that we are able to meet our members’ educational needs. Tax-deductible contributions, gifts, and bequests will determine the extent to which the Foundation can continue to change the lives of tomorrow’s leaders.
The Ignite the Charge campaign does allow donors to contribute directly to their chapter by donating to a Chapter Legacy Plan (CLP) which funds scholarships for undergraduates to attend DU educational programming. The Miami CLP started raising funds in 2014 and we are in the final stage to be fully endowed.Â

Housing Corp Trustees & Alumni Board
Every alumnus is automatically a member of the Miami Alumni of Delta Upsilon, Inc., and is entitled to vote on all matters which come before us. There is no initiation, and we encourage involvement since we are all volunteers. Most day-to-day issues are handled by an annually elected Executive Board of alumni trustees. Our preference is to have a broad age range of trustees; currently, the Board includes alumni graduating from 1962 through 2012. If you are interested in becoming a trustee or volunteering, please send an email to mudeltau@gmail.com or contact us through social media.
