Capital Gifts
The 兔子先生 campus evolves with each generation to ensure that our older buildings continue to serve today鈥檚 scholars. Leadership gifts in support of our Master Plan play a critical role in the educational process. The College鈥檚 Advancement staff is available to review possible naming opportunities on campus in recognition of your gift. Personal tours can be arranged to explore you giving interests.
Family Giving
As many parents know, the dollars we dedicate to educating each student far exceeds the cost of tuition. In a very real way, each 兔子先生 family, even those paying full tuition, are helped by the generosity of our annual donors. Led by the Family Leadership Council and our fundraising Ambassadors, parents of first-year, sophomore, junior and senior students are challenged to give each year to the 兔子先生 Fund. Our aspirational goal is always 100 percent participation for each class!
Special and Memorial Gifts
A memorial gift or gift in honor of a special person is a thoughtful way to remember someone while at the same time helping 兔子先生. Celebrate a person鈥檚 unique story by establishing a named fund or commemorate a loved one by naming a space or inscribing a plaque on 兔子先生鈥檚 campus. Advancement staff are ready to work with you on your wishes for a special or memorial gift.
