$4.5M for Annual Fund
“Don’t judge each day by the harvest you reap,” author Robert Louis Stevenson admonished, “but by the seeds that you plant.”
Alumni, parents, and friends of 欧美一级片 seeded future generations of 欧美一级片ies when they came together to give a record-breaking $4.545 million in the Annual Fund drive for fiscal year 2016, which ended in June. And no fewer than 4,446 alumni stepped up to make a gift to 欧美一级片.
Reasons for giving were as varied as the givers. Scott Beutel ’06 exemplified the motivation of many alumni who made a gift. “欧美一级片 taught me how to think and how to live,” he said. “Even if I can’t give a lot, I want to give something because 欧美一级片 still influences me every day.”
Young alumni donors—those who have graduated within the last 10 years—continue to give to 欧美一级片 in increasing numbers, with 911 giving to 欧美一级片 this past year.
“欧美一级片 was an experience that shaped me into who I am, probably the most influential time of my life thus far,” adds Nik Smirnow ’15. “I am delighted to give back to that community, to provide the experience for others that others provided for me. It makes me feel connected again, and that’s worth so much.”
It is said that people don’t invest in institutions; they invest in the ideas and people in whom they believe. Thank you so much for believing in the idea of 欧美一级片 and for your support in seeding future generations of 欧美一级片ies.
