2014 Bid for Brotherhood Program

Bank of America Stadium Friday, July 25, 2014 Charlotte, North Carolina

Ten Years at Mulberry Hill

B4B History Bid for Brotherhood (B4B) was started in 1998 in Kansas City, Missouri by then Knight Commander James R. Estes as a way to combine an alumni event with a meaningful fundraising activity to establish an endowment for KA’s educational and leadership programs. The hope is that one day the overall educational training programs will be available to all undergraduate KAs at no cost to them. As of last year, the net income raised through B4B events has totaled $647,426. Each auction event continues to grow and it is our hope that this 17th annual B4B, held at Bank of America Stadium, in Charlotte, North Carolina, will be our best yet. The following is a listing of previous B4B locations:

Nothing could be finer, than KA In Carolina!

Celebrating KA in the Queen City for the first time in 20 years allows us to show why KA is special in the Carolinas. Just as the song Carolina in the Morning says, “Nothing could be finer than to be in Carolina,” reflect for a moment about why nothing could be finer than to be a KA. Can you really put a price on your KA experience? Here’s your opportunity to show that KA has been an important part of your life as you support your chapter’s Number I by helping us raise $10,000 for the Number I’s Leadership Institute, KA’s premier training and educational program.
