As we have done so many times in the past, Dickinsonians again this year demonstrated pride in our college and commitment to the students, faculty and future of the college. With $13.7 million in gifts from 11,403 donors, our community declared its support for Dickinson’s useful education in the liberal arts and sciences.Kirk Swenson

The momentum is undoubtedly growing. During the 2018-19 fiscal year, revenue raised by the Dickinson Fund grew by 17% over last year. Scholarship investment also increased, with an additional $4.4 million in new scholarship gifts. On Tuesday, April 23, 2019, we celebrated Dickinson’s most successful Day of Giving to date. During that day, a record 3,898 generous donors gave more than $1 million to Dickinson. We counted nearly 1,000 donors contributing to the McAndrews Fund for Athletics alone!

Thank you to every Dickinson donor. Each gift this year made a difference in the lives of our students, who will go on to make their mark on the wider world.

As you read through the 2018-19 Report on Giving, I hope that you experience the feeling of pride that each and every member of our community of donors has earned.
