Each year, St. Thomas seniors leave a legacy by presenting a class gift to the institution during commencement exercises. Although the Senior Class Gift Committee selects the type of legacy gift that it plans to leave during senior year, fundraising to support the class gift begins three years earlier, through the Student Legacy Program.
Becoming an active member of the Student Legacy Committee requires very little time. The first step is to attend an hour-long Culture of Student Philanthropy meeting, which will answer some common questions about fundraising at St. Thomas: Why do people give money to St. Thomas? How are scholarships at
St. Thomas funded? Who gives money to fund scholarships? Why does St. Thomas have a strong tradition of alumni giving?
Watch for more information about the Student Legacy Program and informational meetings this fall!
For more information about the Student Legacy Program or the Student Legacy Committee, contact gift officers Kristen Winchell, (651) 962-6944 or klwinchell@stthomas.edu, or Dennis Czech, czec2220@stthomas.edu.
