How will my gift be used?

The simple answer to this question is that all gifts made by members of the Class of 2008 will be Annual Fund gifts.

The Annual Fund provides general, unrestricted support for the College's operating budget. The Annual Fund supports student organizations, financial aid, CELS internships, faculty salaries, academic research opportunities, athletics and it helps provide the very best educational environment for students.

Annual Fund gifts are also used to purchase new computers, books and journals for the library, sports equipment, classroom materials and research equipment for the academic departments, among other things.
