Brotherhood Meets Bravery: A Joint Fundraiser from SigEp UC & Brave Like Me

What happens when courage meets character? When brotherhood stands beside a brave child in the fight of their life?

This fall, Sigma Phi Epsilon at the University of Cincinnati is proud to team up with Brave Like Me—a nonprofit creating moments of uninhibited joy for children with life-threatening medical conditions. Together, we’re launching a values-driven fundraiser that does more than raise money. It raises hope.

At SigEp, we believe in leading with Virtue, Diligence, and Brotherly Love. We believe leadership is about lifting others. That’s why this campaign is structured to reflect our shared commitment to impact—with a portion of every ticketed donation supporting our chapter’s mission and the rest directly fueling Brave Like Me’s life-changing programs like Brayden’s Books, Brave Friends Adventures, and mobile pet reunions at children’s hospitals.

💥 How it works:

Each donation “ticket” contributes in two ways (below is an example):

$4 supports SigEp’s leadership initiatives (not tax-deductible)
$6 goes directly to Brave Like Me’s programs for children in medical care (tax-deductible)

What does Brave Like Me Do?

Reunites Hospitalized Children with their own Pets
Provides curated children's books to 20+ Ronald McDonald Houses across the United States that inspire courage, joy, hope and more
Takes Critically and Chronically ill kids on mini-adventures with their best friends

Want your full gift to support the kids? You can make a fully tax-deductible donation to Brave Like Me in any amount on the next page after the "ticket" donations.

This campaign also serves as part of SigEp’s Home & Heart Initiative—a capstone project that champions ethical leadership, intentional service, and community-first philanthropy.

We’re not just showing up—we’re standing up. For children. For families. For a future where no diagnosis gets to define a child’s joy.

Join us. Give with heart. Be brave with us.
