Senior Parent Gifts
Support the Senior Parent Gift
Families of the Class of 2024 Collaborative Work Space in Chase Hall.
Dear fellow Class of 2024 families,
From our “drive-by drop-off” in August 2020 to the excitement of a new president this fall, our seniors’ time at Bates has been characterized by enthusiasm for seizing every opportunity, a willingness to take on challenges, and deep commitment to community. Class of 2024 families have been engaged partners at every turn.
Given the incredible tradition of support among Class of 2024 Families, we invite you to join us as we seek to raise $750,000 to name the Families of the Class of 2024 Collaborative Work Space in Chase Hall.
This newly renovated space is a modernized, central hub for our students and their peers to use for group work, meetings with professors and project partners, and more. Located at the heart of Chase Hall – a campus center for student engagement – our named space will embody connection, curiosity, and collaboration. What a legacy in honor of our seniors and in recognition of our own affection for Bates and its impact on our children.
There is a place for all in this effort, and we invite every Class of 2024 family to participate in the Senior Parent Gift in the way that is right for them.
Deepest thanks in advance for your engagement as donors, cheerleaders, and ambassadors for this effort. We look forward to gathering with you on Commencement weekend to celebrate our collective success.
On behalf of the committee,
Neen Koenigsbauer P’22 P’24

Frequently asked questions about the Senior Parent Gift
How can I get involved as a volunteer?
We would love to have you join the Senior Parent Gift Committee! Please reach out to Emily Bray Levine at Bates at elevine2@bates.edu to learn more and hear how we can make volunteering easy and rewarding for you.
Will I be asked for a Parents Fund gift as well?
Your Senior Parent Gift is your Parents Fund gift. With this in mind, we encourage you to stretch with your support of Bates and the Senior Parent Gift.
I usually support Friends of Bates Athletics as well. How does that factor in?
We know many parents support our student-athletes through the FBA while also supporting the Parents Fund. Both kinds of gifts count toward our goal, so we encourage you to continue to support your student’s team while also stretching in support of the Senior Parent Gift.
I am a senior parent and a Bates alum. Does my Senior Parent Gift count toward my class total?
Yes! Your gift will count toward your class total while supporting this effort.
