What is the Class Gift Campaign?
The Class Gift Campaign is an opportunity for graduating students (undergraduate and graduate level) to come together to leave a legacy of support for current and future students. This campaign focuses on three vital pillars: student scholarships, the student emergency fund, and the campus food pantry.
Join in the spirit of generosity by giving $20.24— a symbolic gesture representing your graduating class year.
Make a gift and receive a philanthropy cord to proudly wear at commencement.
Together, your collective contributions will create a ripple effect of positive change throughout our campus community.
Thank you for participating and congratulations on your graduation!
