AFLV

What AFLV does

AFLV (Association of Fraternal Leadership & Values) is a U.S. nonprofit membership organization founded around 2010 and headquartered in Fishers, Indiana, that exists to accelerate progress in fraternity and sorority communities on college campuses. The organization engages nearly 300 campuses and over 4,000 fraternity and sorority members annually through a stack of experiential programs and educational resources. Its core products are four flagship in-person experiences — AFLV Central (January, Indianapolis), AFLV West (February, Anaheim), the Undergraduate Interfraternal Institute (UIFI) with summer sessions in Indiana and Texas, and The Gathering (annual retreat in Los Gatos, CA) — supplemented by Council Compass, a tiered star-level awards and assessment program with recognition across four directional areas (Accountability, Collaboration, Education, Innovation), and Connections Online, a digital content platform publishing articles and resources on leadership, diversity and inclusion, health and safety, member development, and organizational growth.

AFLV monetizes primarily through annual campus subscriptions priced on a six-tier structure ($300-$1,440 per campus depending on the number of IFC/CPH organizations, with a separate Level 6 for NPHC/CBFO-only communities) that unlocks access to all conferences, UIFI bundles, the assessment program, volunteer and scholarship opportunities, and year-round resources. The secondary revenue stream is per-attendee conference registration, with tickets starting at $335 for AFLV Central, $344 for AFLV West, $670 for UIFI (with discounted bundles at $2,680 for 5 registrations and $4,020 for 8 registrations), and $926 for The Gathering. The go-to-market is community-led and event-driven: campus subscriptions bring all councils on a campus into the network, conferences drive attendee engagement, and Council Compass recognition functions as both an outcomes product and a marketing flywheel.

Operationally, Team AFLV is fully remote with a headcount of 1-10, and the organization is governed as an independent nonprofit with no parent company or disclosed institutional investors. Strategic activity in 2024-2026 includes a partnership with The Leadership and Training Studio to deliver Program Design School, a content collaboration with shift/yes for council leadership resources, an open Project Manager for Content hire to scale Connections Online, and ongoing expansion of the Council Compass star-tier framework, alongside external validation of leadership via the 2024 AFA Sue Kraft Fussell Distinguished Service Award to Executive Director Ryan O'Rourke.
