The Heart of Our Mission
For decades, the Lambda Kappa Sigma Educational Trust has stood as one of the Fraternity’s most powerful legacies—fueling the ambitions of pharmacy students and alumni by easing financial burdens and opening doors to opportunity.

About the LKS Educational Trust
The Lambda Kappa Sigma Educational Trust is more than a fund — it is a promise to our members. By providing scholarships and grants, the Trust eases financial burdens, celebrates the legacy of our founders and leaders, and invests in the future of women in pharmacy.
Stronger Together
The Educational Trust exists because of the collective dedication of our members, alumni, and chapters — all committed to supporting women in pharmacy. Established in 1974, the Trust ensures that financial support is not only consistent but enduring. With guidance from the Trust Liaison Committee and Grand Council, we work together to steward funds that empower sisters across generations.
Educational Grants Program
Every year, the LKS Educational Trust awards more than $25,000 in scholarships through a variety of grants that celebrate leadership, service, loyalty, and scholastic achievement. With opportunities for both collegiate and alumni members, the program reflects the many ways our Fraternity empowers women in pharmacy. These grants aren’t just financial support — they’re a reminder that when one of us reaches higher, the whole sisterhood is there to catch her.
Why Support the Trust?
Each year, we receive more and more applications for our Educational Grants, highlighting not only the academic excellence and dedication of our members but also their significant financial need.

How to Contribute
For Chapters: We encourage all LKS chapters to contribute to the Trust annually. Whether it’s a modest donation or a larger contribution, every bit helps support the financial needs of our members. Several chapters have transferred their individual scholarship funds to the Trust for better financial management and favorable interest rates. This benefits both the chapters and the Trust, ensuring continued growth and support.
For Estate Planning and Endowing a New Grant: Consider making a lasting impact by including the Lambda Kappa Sigma Educational Trust in your estate planning. Endowing a new grant is a meaningful way to honor a loved one or leave a legacy that will support future generations of LKS members.
