Message From the Co-Chairs

"I feel home,
when I see the faces that remember my own.
I feel home,
when I'm chillin' outside with the people I know."

Welcome to the Senior Class Gift Campaign Website! We thank you for your interest in the campaign and your consideration of donating to the Gettysburg Fund.

Over the last few years, we have all come to know Gettysburg College as our home away from home.  In fact, it will continue to be a home for our fond college memories long after our commencement in May 2010.  Gettysburg will be a home for us to return to whenever we need to feel "young" again.  Gettysburg College is a physical place to which we can always return, but it is also a place full of memories in our hearts and minds as we think back over all that we have accomplished here thus far.

Especially in the challenging times that lie ahead of us, in a world where change and uncertainty are the only predictable outcomes, rest assured that your Gettysburg College experience, in and out of the classroom, has prepared you to take on the tough challenges that lie ahead. But in order to guarantee that Gettysburg College continues to prepare students to take on these challenges, we must act now.

The Gettysburg Fund allows students to have 24-hour access to the library and participate in a variety of student activities, provides career development opportunities through research with engaged faculty and practical internships, and allows 75% of all students to receive some sort of financial aid.  It is through the generous support of parents, faculty, staff, friends, alumni and Seniors that the Gettysburg Fund continues to be successful year in and year out....and it is this type of support that guarantees that Gettysburg College graduates are ready to engage in the world around them.

We challenge you, the Class of 2010, to seek that level of engagement for which we have been prepared, and help our alma mater by donating to the Senior Class Gift Campaign.
