Senior Class Challenge 2010
What is the Senior Class Challenge?
The Senior Class Challenge is an annual giving program developed to encourage participation and continue a tradition of philanthropy among our current students and future alumni. It is a special effort for graduating students to say "thank you" and leave a legacy at the College before graduation, and help keep the high standing of the college strong. Most colleges and universities around the country run similar programs, raising thousands of dollars each year for their institutions.
Why should I give?
You probably think I'm crazy to ask you for money when you haven't even graduated and times are tough, but money is tight for current and future students too. By giving $20.10, $50, $100 (and joining the President's Society*), or whatever amount you can afford, we are making a statement about the value we place on keeping Emersonians at Emerson. Our gifts now will provide much needed help for our peers, and will inspire even more gifts in the future. Our challenge is a notable legacy to be a part of.
Where will my money go?
All dollars collected from the Class of 2010 will go to the College's General Scholarship Fund. That means your gift will have a direct impact on financial aid packages awarded next year.
The main goals of our campaign are participation and dollars. Please help make a difference for your Emerson peers by making your gift today. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me Where will my money go?
