Our Story

In the late 1990s, a group of new Alpha members eager to support their chapter sought donations from their respective companies to bolster the scholarship program. However, they faced a hurdle: corporate donations could only be directed to 501c(3) non-profits, not directly to the fraternity. Potential donors were keen on securing tax benefits. Mr. Vernon Freeman, recognizing the need for a strategic approach, stepped up to the challenge. Leveraging his position on the board of a non-profit organization, he spearheaded the establishment of the ZBL Foundation (ZBLF). This innovative move opened a plethora of donation opportunities for the ZBL Alumni chapter and allowed prospective donors to enjoy tax credit.

​

Through Mr. Freeman's leadership and foresight, the chapter's ability to secure funding for its scholarship program expanded significantly, ensuring that deserving individuals could pursue their educational aspirations with financial support.
