Dear Class of 2019,
We are excited to kick off this year’s Senior Legacy Campaign! The Senior Class Legacy is our first opportunity to give back to the University that has given so much to us. Making a gift as a senior, and each year after graduation, helps to ensure that future generations of Spiders will have access to the same amazing opportunities that we’ve enjoyed. And a gift of any amount counts toward Richmond’s alumni giving rate, which is a factor in our ranking in college guidebooks such as U.S. News & World Report. Strong rankings improve Richmond’s national reputation, so your gift has a positive impact on the value of your own degree and on the experience of future Spiders. This year, we are aiming to hit 75% participation, and for that we need your help!
We encourage you to make a gift to the University's Greatest Needs, which supports financial aid, student services, technological upgrades on campus, and more. Or, you can choose to designate your donation towards a student organization or academic department that is special to you. You can even make your gift in honor of someone – a parent, professor, or friend – who has helped you reach this important milestone in your life.
Please join us in our efforts and say “thanks!” to the University of Richmond for all of the lessons we’ve learned and fun we've had during our time here. Your support shows your appreciation for the time you have spent here at Richmond, and for all those who came before us and made it possible. Our goal is for 75% of the class to make a contribution – please help us meet, or even exceed, that ambitious goal!
You can make your gift online here, but please feel free to contact us with any questions you may have.
Gratefully,
Your 2019 Senior Legacy Committee
