Why Should I Give?

Emily Bierwirth '11 and Sarah Carter '11Value the Experience
Senior Pledge provides seniors with an opportunity to remember the individual and collective experiences that have defined their time at Colby and to recognize the value of those experiences.

Class Unity
In giving back to this institution that has given us so much, we strengthen our class unity; we define ourselves as a group of individuals, unique in talent but united in our recognition of our experiences.

Gifts in Honor
We come from diverse backgrounds and have varied histories, but all of us owe our Colby experiences to individuals who have made lasting and significant impacts on our lives. A gift to Senior Pledge can be made in honor of someone who has made your Colby experience memorable.

The True Cost
Every Colby student receives a silent scholarship of more than $16,000 each year. Donations from students and alumni make it possible for the cost of tuition to be 26 percent lower than the true cost of a Colby education.

Scholarship Funding
Donations made to Senior Pledge reduce the cost of tuition and allow students for whom it would otherwise be financially impossible to receive a Colby education.

Please consider giving to Senior Pledge 2011. Support our class, value your experience.
