1. Giving at Washington College
  2. Senior Gifts

Senior Gifts

The Senior Class Gift is a student-driven fundraising event that raises money among the senior class to support specific aspects of Washington College.

Through making their first gift this way, seniors begin the tradition of giving back to their soon-to-be alma mater and show how grateful they are for the organizations, clubs, academic programs, and athletic teams that have made a significant difference in their lives. Senior gifts help to ensure that future generations have the same experience.

Senior Gifts

Support Your Washington Home

You can give to what is most memorable to you — to your Washington College family! It may be to a club/organization, academic program, or athletic team. Can't pick one because everyone at the College was family? Consider giving to The Washington Fund, which supports the College's most pressing needs, such as student scholarships.

 

Class Gifts

Many senior classes pick one cause to support as a group, so you may want to join your classmates for the biggest impact.

The Class of 2025

The Class of 2025 invited alumni to join them in their giving and raised more than $56,000. Donors to that campaign are recognized in the brick walkway between Middle Hall and the Green.

The Class of 2024

The Class of 2024 embraced their diversity and did not select a single cause. Organizers wrote, "The impact our class has had on the Washington College community has extended across academics, athletics, Greek Life, campus clubs, and more. So, it is difficult to choose a single initiative to donate towards as a class gift. Our gift will reflect our class's diverse interests and passions."

The Class of 2023 contributed to the effort to rebuild the terrace outside the Miller Library, an important and beloved space on campus. Their generosity helped make the terrace both more attractive and more accessible.
