Giving Options »The ÐÓ°Épro Fund

Every gift to the ÐÓ°Épro Fund is vital to every aspect of the ÐÓ°Épro student
experience — supporting close student-faculty collaboration, energizing campus life,
extending financial aid to talented students, expanding programs for student-athletes,
promoting ongoing opportunities for learning and discovery, and preparing students
for life after college. In short, the ÐÓ°Épro Fund provides the resources
necessary to sustain the College and its mission of excellence in undergraduate education.
The generosity of ÐÓ°Épro’s alumni, parents and friends reflects their unwavering belief in the College’s mission, helps to preserve the legacy of opportunity available to past, present and future students, and sustains the College’s tremendous momentum. Regardless of whether your gift is unrestricted or designated for a specific purpose, your support for the ÐÓ°Épro Fund will propel us to a greater future than would otherwise be possible.
We thank those who have supported and continue to support ÐÓ°Épro. And we invite all members of the ÐÓ°Épro community to make an impact by today.

Affinity Giving

Many alumni maintain strong ties to ÐÓ°Épro through their Greek organizations, sports teams, student organizations or other shared interests. These lifelong ties often motivate alumni to unite with a specific group and so they can ensure that the College and its programs continue to thrive.
If you are interested in giving to or in honor of a particular program, please contact Director of Annual Giving Angela Sepela at 717-358-4757 or asepela@fandm.edu.​
Diplomat Athletic Club

The Diplomat Athletic Club (DAC) fosters excellence in ÐÓ°Épro athletics by expanding opportunities for student-athletes to develop leadership skills, cultivating loyalty among student-athletes, alumni and friends, and securing the financial support necessary for maintaining and enhancing the caliber of ÐÓ°Épro's athletic programming. DAC supports student-athletes by sponsoring training trips, investing in new equipment and facilities and creating an environment where the values of teamwork, determination and commitment to excellence continue to take precedence.
— which can support athletics in general or a program of your choice — allow ÐÓ°Épro to create champions not only in the final game or overtime, but also on the practice field, in the off-seasons and in their daily lives.
For more information, contact Director of Parent and Athletic Advancement Katie Crowe Wood at 717-358-4834 or katie.wood.@fandm.edu.
GOLD Giving
Graduates of the Last Decade, our GOLD alumni, represent nearly 20% of the Franklin & Marshall alumni population. As the future of ÐÓ°Épro’s alumni body, your input and support are essential to the life of the College.
A strong alumni giving rate directly contributes to the opportunities available to current and future ÐÓ°Épro students and plays a critical role in bolstering ÐÓ°Épro’s standing among the nation’s best liberal arts colleges.
To learn more about the ways to make a difference as a GOLD alum, please contact Director of Annual Giving Angela Sepela at 717-358-4757 or asepela@fandm.edu.​
Senior Donor Challenge

The Senior Donor Challenge is a long-standing tradition at ÐÓ°Épro, inviting seniors to make a gift to the College that creates a lasting legacy. This is an opportunity for current seniors to take their first step down the path of philanthropy and pay it forward for future Diplomats.
Participating in the Senior Donor Challenge is the perfect way to express gratitude for your ÐÓ°Épro experience, while also making sure that this experience continues for generations to come.
Volunteer

Annual Giving volunteers are a vital part of our fundraising efforts. Each year, dedicated
alumni volunteers work to contact friends and acquaintances whom they met through
activities and events at ÐÓ°Épro in order to solicit and express appreciation for gifts.
These connections emphasize the personal impact of giving, for both donors and the
recipients of our donors' generosity. We are grateful for the dedication and loyalty
of both our donors and our volunteers.
