2018 House Corporation Award Winners

The 2018 House Corporation Award recipients were announced at Leadership Seminar this year.

Excellent communication between the house corporation and the international organization is

Performance awards are achieved through meeting the established criteria for the current academic
year, which require legal compliance, being fiscally sound, good communication with chapters and
District Teams, creating a safe home environment, executing a chapter-house corporation
agreement, and issuing the member dues and fees agreement.

House Corporations are also judged on a positive working relationship with the chapter,
development of a long-range capital improvement plan, development of safety upgrade plans,
efficient management of employees and staff, participation in training opportunities, and
improvements to chapter space or membership using chapter space.
