Gifts to Class of 1985 Endowed Scholarship contribute to...
Calling all members from the Class of 1985!
It's been 40 years since we graduated, and to honor that milestone, we're looking for 40 donors from our class to make a contribution this Scarlet & Give Back Day. We have two goals: 1. We have an overall fundraising goal for our reunion year that can be met in any number of ways. You can donate to the Pioneer Fund (general operating), athletics, an academic department, or anything else that is meaningful to you. 2. That said, we would REALLY like to encourage you to donate to the Class of 1985 Endowed Scholarship Fund we've established in honor of our 40th reunion (May 29-June 1). This scholarship will support future students who might otherwise not be able to afford Grinnell’s world-class education, and will help continue to support the College’s need-blind admission policy. Either way, please be one of the 40 classmates who help us reach our reunion donor and dollar goals!
NEW CHALLENGE ANNOUNCED: To keep the momentum going, the Board of Trustees is offering a challenge. Trustees will contribute an additional $197,000 if we reach a total of 2,500 donors by 5 p.m. CT today.
