We’re IN!

Bates Fund alumni participation challenge announced!

During a time of unprecedented momentum at Bates, a small group of anonymous alumni leaders have brought forth a special challenge to the Bates community. Recognizing the critical importance of alumni participation, the donors will give the Bates Fund $500,000 if at least 50% of alumni make a gift during the current 2011-12 fiscal year. Gifts of any size made to any designation between July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012 count toward the goal.

As a Bates Fund volunteer, we know that you’re already in. Thank you for spreading the word to alumni about this compelling opportunity. Help us hit 50% and get $500,000 for Bates!
