What is the Senior Gift Drive?
The Senior Class Gift Drive is a student-led initiative to recognize the support that brought you to where you are today and begin a lifetime connection with the college that will allow future generations of Dickinsonians the same advantages that you enjoyed.
What does the College do with my money?
The funds collected from the Senior Gift Drive go directly into the Dickinson Annual Fund. This helps support scholarship, financial aid, academic programming, student programming, faculty support, and the upkeep and maintenance of our facilities.
Can I tell Dickinson what to do with my gift?
It’s your money! It’s your gift! Of course! Gifts to the Senior Class Gift Drive can be restricted to the following areas:
- Scholarships
- Academic Programming
- Faculty Support
- Student Life
- Clarke Forum
- McAndrew’s Fund
- Trout Gallery
- Waidner-Spahr Library
- Sustainability
For a detailed explanation of each of these, visit the Annual Fund website.
I’ve given enough, why should I participate?
The short answer is because that’s what Red Devils do!
The long answer is imagine your Dickinson experience without half of your closest friends. Imagine it without your favorite professors. Imagine it without all of the advantages you were given as a student. Would you want to return to the place you’re now imagining? All of this was provided for you and your peers by Dickinsonians that came before. It is now your responsibility to take over and provide for someone else.
The Dickinson of today is only as good as you and your fellow Dickinsonians make it. The students that pass through these limestone walls are the life blood of the College, and it is up to you to keep the school going each and every year. Now and after you graduate.
I’m convinced. Now how to I make my gift?
We’re glad you asked! The easiest way is to make your gift online here.
You can also make a gift to any of the committee members.
Also, keep an eye of for the Senior Class Gift Drive table in the HUB lower level throughout the year as well as at Gift Drive and senior class events all year long.
