| Dear AHEPA Brothers, AHEPA Family Members, and Friends of AHEPA, I hope this holiday season finds you well! I wanted to send a quick note to make sure you were aware that on February 3, 2026, the Sons of Pericles will be turning 100 years old! As many AHEPA Chapters have celebrated their Centennial Anniversaries over the past few years, and AHEPA as a whole celebrated 100 years of Service and Brotherhood in 2022, I know that you understand what an accomplishment it is to have an organization that is still going strong 100 years after it’s inception. Since our founding in Manchester, New Hampshire, members of the Sons of Pericles have made a profound impact not just in their home communities, but out in the world as well. The leadership skills learned in the SOP have been taken into the business world and our current, former, and lifetime members continue to thrive. I want to personally invite you to celebrate with us on January 30-February 1, 2026 in Manchester, New Hampshire. We have a great weekend planned for the entire AHEPA family and hope you will be able to join us. If you are unable to join us, I am asking you to please consider becoming a sponsor of the weekend, or purchasing an ad for your Chapter or Business in order to support our endeavor to raise $100,000 by the date of our Centennial. We are currently almost halfway to our goal and time is running out! Whether you are donating via your Chapter or would like to make a donation on behalf of yourself or your business, every little bit helps and is greatly appreciated by the Sons of Pericles. For those interested in joining us, the weekend includes a Friday night cocktail reception and unveiling of a Sons of Pericles exhibition at the Millyard Museum in Manchester, to ensure our organization has a permanent place in Manchester’s history. Saturday’s activities include brunch at a local Manchester establishment and our Centennial Gala Celebration later that evening. We would love to have you join us and celebrate with us!

| Last but not least, if you are a current or former member of the Sons of Pericles, we request that you send a brief statement to us at sopcentennial@gmail.com regarding your time in the SOP and what being a member of the Sons of Pericles meant to you. Thank you in advance for your consideration, and for your continued support of the Sons of Pericles. I wish you a happy and healthy holiday season and hope to see you in Manchester! |
