Why give to the Senior Class Gift?

This year’s graduates want to thank those who came before them for their contributions. We want to ensure that current and future Ripon College students continue to receive funding, support and invitation to take part in outstanding opportunities and take the first step in becoming part of the legacy of philanthropy here at RC.

Throughout Ripon College’s 155 years, classes have united together to give back to the College in a variety of ways. The mark of the generations of students that have come before us is both evident and everlasting, from the Harwood Union Clock and the scoreboard at Ingall’s Field to numerous benches and grills around campus to scholarships and endowments available to current and future students. Becoming part of this tradition shows that the Class of 2010 values the education and experiences they have been privileged to receive and believes in reaching out to give back to their alma mater to sustain and enhance Ripon College for future generations. 

The Senior Class Gift Fundraising Officers have the responsibility and privilege of selecting campus-specific Class Gift Projects that embody the spirit of their entire class. We are opening it up to you, the future graduates of the Class of 2010, to submit ideas you think would have the most impact or value to the classes that follow. 

As a supporter of the Senior Class Gift Program, you can choose where your money goes. A gift of any size makes a difference. Your support is essential to providing more opportunities and a better campus life to future students. 

Please submit ideas, today, and we’ll take them into consideration. After we have synthesized the ideas and researched their feasibility, we will open up the polls so the Class of 2010 can vote on the gift they want to leave as our legacy at Ripon College. 

Sincerely,          

       ~Your Senior Class Fundraising Officers~
