About

The Mount David Society recognizes Bates Fund donors who put the college first in their annual philanthropy. These individuals lead the way in supporting Bates by making significant, unrestricted current-use gifts each year — gifts that underpin the college’s ability to sustain excellence.

	“The Mount David Society can help catalyze more connections among Bates men and women in our professional fields. The Society also offers pathways for us to serve Bates at a time when Bates needs us the most.” — Mount David Society Co-Chair Ted Bernhard ’92
	“The Mount David Society is more than a vehicle for the financial support of an institution we all hold so dear. It is a means of maintaining our past connections to Bates into its future, and it is precisely these deep connections which make Bates a special community for so many of us.” — Mount David Society Co-Chair Rob Cramer ’79, P’13, P’14
