Newton Foundation Donation

March 10, 2025, By PBSWest.org

As we honor the legacy of Bro. Dr. Huey P. Newton, we invite you and your chapter to contribute financially to his Foundation—an organization committed to preserving the impact and influence of one of the foremost leaders in the Black liberation movement.

The Huey P. Newton Foundation is essential in educating future generations, promoting social justice, and empowering communities. We are requesting donations to support their continued efforts and strongly encourage all brothers and chapters to take part in this meaningful initiative.

Donations directly fund the Foundation's educational programs, outreach initiatives, and community-based projects, all of which align with the core values of our Fraternity. Bro. Sidney Jackson, Jr. contributed $500.00 from his regional budget, while Alpha Nu Sigma Chapter - Oakland, CA, Gamma Phi Sigma Chapter - San Francisco, CA, Theta Lambda Sigma Chapter - San Jose, CA, Omicron Iota Sigma Chapter - San Diego, CA, Sigma Zeta Sigma Chapter - Tacoma, WA, and Phi Beta Sigma Chapter - Los Angeles, CA each donated $500.00. Additionally, 100 individual brothers from across the region also made contributions.

Regional Director Sidney Jackson committed a regional pledge of $19,140.00 and presented a $5,000.00 check to the Foundation on Thursday, February 27, 2025. The region aims to fulfill its final payment to the Foundation before the end of the calendar year. As of today we have raised a total of $5,847.66 which is 30.55% of our goal..cWe extend our heartfelt thanks to all the brothers who have donated and continue to support this cause. Your generosity is helping to create a lasting legacy and make a positive impact in the greater Oakland, CA area.

Also, if you'd like to contribute more than the specified amount, you can add an additional donation before completing your purchase in the shopping cart.

If you have any questions or would like to learn more about this initiative, please feel free to contact us. Thank you for your consideration, and we look forward to your support.

Sigma, more than a fraternity. We are the standard by which all others are measured.

Fraternally,
